Chimay Bleue (Blue)

Brewed by Chimay
Style: Belgian Strong Ale
Baileux, Belgium

The best beer I’ve ever had. Just the right balance of malt and fruit and not overly strong. Let it warm up a little and it tastes even better.

unclear brown w nice head. Strong malty aroma of dark fruit, caramel and spices. Alcolhol develops in mouth. Flavour is sweet and the long finish sweet too. Never go wrong with Chimay Bleu

Brown in color with beige head. Aroma and taste is of prune, malt, chocolate, and yeast. This is one of the best very widely distributed beers. I prefer the bottle to the top version myself. Good with food because it has a solid but not overpowering flavor that complements rather than dominates.

33cl bottle, dark reddish/brown colour, medium brownish creamy head, yeast and dark fruits aroma, spices and chocolate notes, sweet chocolate flavor, finish with raisins and spices aftertaste, finally my quest for chimay blue is over and my expectations are confirmed

Come on, you know it is the best if you have to close your eyes as you sip it. Forget Champagne, I’m serving this at my wedding.

Brown in color with a large beige head. Aroma is of prune, flowers and malt. Taste is of chocolate, malt, yeast and light flower notes.

The Budweiser of Belgian Trappist Ales...ok, that’s selling it short, but this beer is everywhere. Taste is Belgian yeast, dark fruit, and a little sweet malt. Nice complexity. Medium-bodied, tending a little towards the full side.

750ml first pour in Westmalle glass. (Chimay glass is dirty.) Hazy dark brown with lasting flat head. Caramel cherry wood and fresh damp forest growth aroma. Toasty caramel woodsy yeasty mild fruit with surprisingly clean finish. Medium-full creamy body and rather bubbly internal carbo despite fairly rousing pour. Just plain delicious. Everything balanced to please the palate. Only a little too cold. Gotta let it sit...but I...can’t...stop...drinking...it!
