Chimay Triple / Blanche (White)

Dry and sour aroma is fruity, apple, citrus, spices and some yeast. Very hoppy, floral flavor is fruity, apple, citrus, spices and yeast.

And orange beer leaning towards amber with a powerful head. Aroma is full of tropical fruits and herbs. Rich in flavor where one picks up hints of pineapple, passion fruit and more herbs. Bitterness blends in well towards the end. Perhaps slightly too large late bitterness for me to give it a better score.

Pours a hazy orange with a nice white head. Aroma is dry, fruit, sour, yeast. Flavor is yeast, dry, fruit, pepper with floral notes. My least favorite of the chimay line, but still pretty decent.

Bottle. Pours a light orange amber body with a big fluffy head. The least favorite chimay in my opinion. Aroma is dry and earthy and has a good pepper yeasty backbone. Flavor is that. A solid beer thats an easy choice. I enjoyed it slightly less on draft.

33CL bottle, white great head, good golden color. Nice hop taste. Overall good beer.

33cl bottle. Served in a Chimay glass. Pours orange tinted golden with a 3 fingered head. Slight haze with lots and lots of fine bubbles. Aroma is light fruit, honey, spice (pepper), and floral. Taste is sweet and malty pils malt, light fruits (pear), some mild alcohol, & black pepper. Finish is slightly tart & bitter, but balanced. This is a pretty tasty beer and a nice example of the style.

(0.33 l bottle, BBE2010, at Kaisla on 2008-06-11) Orange and cloudy. Quite big white dense head. Yeasty and fruity nose. Full and quite dry palate, quite carbonated. Malts and hints of chocolate in taste. Bitter aftertaste. Bit harsh. Perhaps too young.

On tap at Pizzaman’s in Milwaukee. Appearance is a golden amber, with a frothy, foamy head. Smell is grainy and a little floral. Tastes sweet, with a hint of green apples--refined and complex, yet simple. Slightly dry and impeccably smooth. Completely intoxicating, and leaves one feeling as if floating on a cloud. Miraculously heavenly.
