Commercial Description:
Chimay Blanche (White), with its typical golden colour, its slightly hazy appearance and its fine head is especially characterised by its aroma which results from an agreeable combination of fresh hops and yeast. The beer's flavour, as sensed in the mouth, comes from the smell of hops: above all it is the fruity notes of muscat and raisins that give this beer a particularly attractive aroma. The aroma complements the touch of bitterness. There is no acidity, but an after-bitterness which melts in the mouth. This top fermented Trappist beer, refermented in the bottle, is not pasteurised.
Ingredients: Water, malted barley, wheat starch, sugar, hop extract and yeast. See Protz and John White

Pours hazy golden brown, with a wine like malty aroma. Malty and slightly hoppy, a great tripel, one of my favorites.

Pours gold-ish color with a large head. Spice aromas with some malt and carbonation. Goes down quite smooth for an 8% abv.

Bottle. Poured a cloudy gold with a large head. Aroma of spice and malt. Flavor of the same. Good beer and the easiest to drink of the three Chimay beers.

11.2 oz bottle, pours hazy golden color with visible sediment floating near the bottle of the bottle. Bottle was chilled, but a large, fluffy head still formed. One word I can use to describe this beer: smooth! Tastes like what Stone Vertical epic ’07 tried to taste like. Fruity/spiced aroma, complex taste of fruits, spice, and slight alcohol upon warming. Goes down very smoothly (too smoothly?). Probably my favorite of the three Chimay’s

(Bottle). Fragrant fruit spice aroma. Hazy orange color with huge fluffy white head. First few sips show over-prominent alcohol, then the flavor settles down to a complex of fruits, hops, and yeast. Delicious. Reminds me a lot of Le Fin du Monde, only not as sweet.
