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

Bottle from the LCBO. Hazy, dark golden brown pour. Smooth with a definitive trappist ale finish. I will buy this again.

Unbelievably, on tap at the Red Zone bar and grill in Fresno, CA. Hazy straw colored with small head to lace. Nose is nice light Belgian fruity yeast. Taste is same, with a nice background of bitterness. Belgian style sweetness is obvious, but not overpowering. Nice balance. I’m not typically a big Belgian fan, but I liked this one.Too bad the pint was $11.00 instead of the $4.50 all the other brews were.

Hazy white, golden with a decent white head. Sweet, spiced aroma and taste. A bit of dry pineapple and grapes off the hops. Dry finish leaves you thirsting for more.

Pours a hazy gold with a pillowy head that slowly settles down to a thin covering. Aroma is mostly earthy with a slight floral contribution from the hops. Mildly sweet and fruity with a drying finish. Medium bodied with smooth carbonation.

Bottle. The triple smells very sweet and malty, strong aroma of bread, a soft fruity smell. The head is large, light beige and creamy with a long duration. The body is cloudy and orange-brown. The taste is malty with a light bitter touch. The finish is bitter and light metallic. The body is very creamy and silky, medium strong with a normal carbonation.

I did drink one of these beers but has been awhile ago and I don’t recall all of the details - good beer though and will have it again.

Bottled, pours clear amber/golden in color, with small white head. It has aromas of floral hops and citrus rind with a touch of yeast. It has a light body with a slightly bitter bite. It is a smooth triple with a carbonated finish of floral hoppiness.
