The Chimay Red is the oldest of the Chimays. Its coppery color and sweet, fruity taste make it a particularly tasty dark ale.
In the 75 centiliter version, which is in existance since 1978, this beer is also called La Première.

0,33 bottle. I've been eyeing him for a long time. An opaque, unfiltered brownish-red color, a huge beautiful foam crown, collapses over time, but remains in a nice amount. Caramel fragrance scent with dried fruit, full-bodied delicate, characteristic scent. Easy to drink, not so hard Belgian, just hit carbonation. Spicy, juicy, caramel is real Belgian, but not of the strong variety. Drinking base Belgian dubbel.

Már rég szemezgettem vele. Opálos, szűretlen barnásvörös szín, hatalmas szép habkorona, idővel összeesik, de szép mennyiségben megmarad. Karamellmalátás illat, aszalt gyümölccsel, testes finom, karakteres illat. Könnyen iható, nem annyira kemény belga, pont eltalált szénsavasság. Fűszeres, zamatos, karamelles igazi belga, de nem a strong fajtából. Jól iható alap belga dubbel.

Had this many times over the years, surprised I've never rated it. Anyway, bottle at the Barrel and Horn, Bromley. Hazy brown pour with a beige head. Nose of orchard fruit, toffee, vanilla. Flavours of sweet red berries, red apple, sultanas, sweet malt. Lots of sweet malt in the finish. Nice.
