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

330 ml bottle. Slightly cloudy golden color, very big head. Bright aroma of citric hops. The taste is extremely smooth, with great undertones of hops and fruit. Very drinkable and quite appealing, Chimay can’t seem to go wrong.

holy cow is this a great beer. i am usually not a fan of belgain style beers, but this is just awesome. great hoppy/yeasty aroma, really well balanced. super smooth and drinkable. if i had to find a fault, it would be that it was a little too carbonated, but thats just picking nits.

My least favourite of the three most common beers from chimay ie rouge and bleu. It is still quite nice. pours hazy golden colour Slightly spicy with some sweetness caramel perhaps. quite enjoyable but not crazy good.

Nice pour with a heavy and tight head. Initial taste is sweet and full of zest. Not very complex at first taste but definably packs a bite. I’m not a big fan of triples but I’m’ enjoying this quite a bit. Its simplicity is its strength. This beer is the perfect example that less is more. Not bad.

All three Chimays that you normally find are all really great beers. Just plain delicious.
