My favourite Trappist beer so far. Has a great aroma and a spicy and caramel like taste.

meaty port flavors, incredible head, strong yeast aroma.. very complex.. alcohol is very evident in a heart-warming finish.. will mellow you down.. Thanks to the brothers at Chimay for putting out such a high-quality product!

I got to taste an eleven year old Chimay Blue and it was life-changing - smelt like fruit cake and tasted like port. Mind boggling!

When I first started drinking the Bleu, my roomate and I were trying to figure if the Bleu was beer at all. It certainly tastes quite a bit like many of the wine products I have sampled over the years. One of the most original beers I have tried and liked. It rich color and taste lead to a strong aftertaste that sits with you for a while. The alcohol content is definitely felt.

After uncorking the bottle and hearing this wonderful champagne pop, and after the smoke clears, I pour into the glass a beautiful dark appearance with a touch of red, a pronounced head, complex caramel, malted flavors, and while this beer has a fine and wonderful texture, it looks better than it tastes, there’s a kind of fruited dullness, even the aroma is bitter, perhaps sour is the word I’m looking for, as if they mixed a little Orval into the dark Belgian Ale. Personally, while I loved the look, and while I gave it every kind of temperature test, I didn’t care for the taste. Perhaps I got a bad bottle, or perhaps this is really what it tastes like. Unfortunately, I’m inclined to believe the latter.

I don’t think that there is anything that I can say that hasn’t already been said. Deep, rich, and satisfying. Truly an excellent beer.

UPDATED: OCT 14, 2004 Rerate 2004: Either my palate has improved or this beer has gone down hill (probably both) Still a bloody nice fruity strong ale but seems thinner in palate and slightly out of wack in balance than in the past , more sugary?

Great Ale. This was my first real Trappist experience and one that I constantly go back to. This is a rich, tasty ale with a strong head and strong aroma. Beautiful late at night or after a good lunch. Just lovely and quite affordable for the quality. Excellent.
