Chimay Triple / Blanche (White)

0.33 L bottle from Bottlescrew Bills, Calgary. A briht reddish gold colour with heaps of foamy head. Aroma of spicy hops and grass. Taste is hoppy and slightly bitter. Very good beer and i was impressed as this was my first tripel.

330ml Bottle. Pours a hazy amber with a 2 finger creamy white head. Nose is yeast, spice and hops. Taste is Belgian yeast and spices and a bitter hop finish. Medium mouth feel. Part of a 3 bottle vertical I did. This was first, and came in last. Still good however.

Very nice tripel, and widely avialable. Hazy amber color, smells of fruit, bananas, and other citrus. Very good combination of hops, spices, and yeast. Nice, fairly bitter finish.

This is a very tasty beer. The head is full, remains, and adds a nice creamy texture. The flavor is wonderfully spicy and very complex. The malts are noticably present and the hops are balanced nicely. This is a nice triple.

Hazy orange with a thick and permanent head. Spicy and sour aroma with some yeast and malt. Flavor is quite bitter and yeasty with a nice fruity and spicy taste. Also somehow cheese-like sour which disturbs a bit. Very smooth mouthfeel and quite a good body. Not my favorite trappist but anyway enjoyable.

Bottle & tap on multiple occasions @ Café Gollem. Pale amber colour, white head. Aroma of hops and malts, some spices and yeast. Flavour is very malty, but nicely balanced by the hoppy bitterness and a slightly earthy/yeasty taste. Very smooth palate, soft and creamy mouthfeel. There aren’t many flavours in this beer, but the ones present are so well balanced that you have to love this brew. One of the best (if not the best) tripels.

Pours orange-golden, hazy. Decent head. A bit yeasty, although balanced with the malts. I prefer Chimay Rouge (red cap) and Chimay Blue to the white, but it’s a fine tasty beer.

A wonderful, classic beer. Pours a nice hazy gold with a fabulous, three-finger white head. Subtle aroma of yeast and the flavor is a smooth balance of malt, yeastiness, with just the right touch of hops in the finish with hints of banana and clove.
