Chimay Description

Topped with a creamy head, it gives off a light, fruity apricot aroma produced by the fermentation. The taste perceived in the mouth is a balance confirming the fruity nuances noticed in the fragrance. Its taste, which imparts a silky sensation to the tongue, is made refreshing by a light touch of bitterness. To the palate, the taster perceives a pleasant astringency which complements the flavour qualities of this beer very harmoniously. This top fermented Trappist beer, refermented in the bottle, is not pasteurised.

Wine Enthusiast: 92 Points

Chimay Premiere, also known as Chimay Red, is the oldest product in the Trappist brewery s lineup. It s a clear-brown color, with solid lacing that lingers with each sip. There s a medicinal seam that weaves throughout the core of caramel malt, red plum, cherry and brown sugar. Those core characteristics carry though to the palate, where medium carbonation lifts the sip, lending refreshment through the dry, spicy finish. Manneken--Brussel Imports.
