The Chimay Blue is a dark ale with a powerful aroma. Its complex flavor improves with passing time. The 75-centiliter version (since 1982) is called ''Grande Réserve'' because of its great storage potential., It was first brewed as a Christmas beer by the monks of Scourmont Abbey in 1956. But after its great success, it was decided to offer it permanently.

Super mellow and sweet almost like a sweet tea with a mild raisin taste. Smells like bread

Oxidised? Yes! Awesome? Yes! Heavy brandy plum, balaton cherry, dark grape fruitiness. Malts and caramelised apples. Awesome!
