Bottle, 2024 vintage. Bready malt aroma with notes of dark fruit, banana, clove, grassy hops, spicy Belgian yeast and cereal malt. Pours cloudy amber colored with a thin off white head that has little retention and some lacing. Starts with bready malt, dark fruit, clove and cereal malt flavors. Finishes smooth and a touch dry with banana, spicy Belgian yeast and grassy hop flavors. Delicious.

Powerhouse off white head on an unfiltered amber body. Softy citrus hop and spice nose. Citrus hops, banana esters, cloves, cereal and candied fruit produce a crisp and fresh taste profile. The hops are a nice addition to the typical Chimay taste array.

Old rating - A 330ml bottle brought home from Belgium in 2015 and stored in my cellar. Opened on last Christmas day & poured a amber colour with a white head. Aromas are a combination of floral & grassy hops, sugar, malt and spicy yeast. The taste is sweet malt with some floral & grassy hops and mild bitterness. Medium bodied with effervescent carbonation and pleasant warmth near the finish. Very good

0,33 l bottle. BB 12/2027. Cloudy orange golden in the glass, nearly two finger white foamy head. Sweet fruity caramel aroma. Taste starts with a dry soft grainy bitterness, herbal spices, malt, sugar. Low carboanted. Soft alcoholic. Nice.
One of those beers that one sees in every beer shop and supermarket. Having said that a decent Belgian Tripel. Bottle at home.

Gosh I never rated this. Cloudy golden pour into trappist glass. Fruit, a bit of spice, some sugar, a pretty decent trip.

Lys brun tåkete med hvitt skum. Lukter belgisk gjær, noe karamell og brød. Middels fylde. Smaker belgisk gjær, hvete og alkohol. Middels lang.
