Trappist is not a type of beer.

Ok I guess in English the correct term is indeed 'trappist beer', but in Dutch 'trappist' is used to refer to the beer as well as the monk/nun; there's a lot more talking about beer than about those monks obviously, so you can imagine that for me 'trappist' means 'beer' no matter what language so pardon my linguistic mistake :)

Same in French. I guess that whenever one sees the word trappist in a conversation, beer comes in mind first. Unless you are in a history class.

In Hungary, Trappist is first and foremost a cheese.

I would even call it the default cheese, though like many cheeses it was apparently invented in France:
