After brewing and fermentation, CH’TI beers is kept for long weeks in storage tanks. In the calm and cool (0°C) environment, the beer matures, develops a finer taste, perfects its aroma and acquires its natural and characteristic sparkles. It is here also that the beer obtains its balance, finesse and gleam. The Blonde is brewed since 1979.

330ml bottle. Clear golden colour with huge, firm, frothy, fairly lasting, minimally lacing, white head. Aroma and taste are quite neutral. Cautious grainy and husky notes, a touch of citrus fruits in taste. Absolutely anaemic.

Nice copper, orange color with one finger head. Pleasant malty flavor , some dried fruit taste. Nice smooth aftertaste, with very little alcohol burn. Nice.

Bottle. Pours clear dark golden honey with small white head. Aroma is vague, but with hints of mushrooms, malt and cereal. Taste is light bitter and faint sweet. Body is light oily with good carbonation. Finish is short and light bitter with notes of cereal and citrus. Nice appearance but awfully disappointing and boring aroma and taste.

Big bottle, little umph. Caged 75cl bottle, bought from Boozers Warehouse, Calais (1.99 Euro) in Dec 2006, drank Dec 2006, best by Feb 2007. Very light golden in colour, with a constant flow of bubbles flowing towards the thin white foaming head. Weak aroma of oak or beach sap. Tastes of nothing really, very disappointing for a 6.4% beer. Again no real mouthfeel, so no drinkability either!
