Oct 2, 2001 The Belgians are our friends. Still earthy/sweet as Belgian ales must be, very full and complex, and outstanding with a strong Honduran cigar.

Sep 19, 2002 Updated: May 18, 2004The greatest of all time? There are times that I drink this beer and I can't believe that a mortal man created it. I guess that is why it comes from men of the cloth. The corked bottle is subtly better. I have had the pleasure of trying a 6 yr. old bottle and it was WONDERFUL. That experience convinced me to start my own 'cellar'---First Anniversary bottle: disappointingly thin. I am afarid that I am storing too cold. Alcohol also more evident then I thought it should be. Can only get better.
2nd Anniversary Bottle-- got to this one late due to my SO's being preggers and all. I have since brought these bottles out of cold storage and put them in to closet storage. This helped the next bottle age IMMENSLEY. So, yeah, I must have been keeping these too cold to age. This one had so much more depth and character then the 1st Anniversary bottle. Lots of plum, prune (same thing eh?), and all those other dark fruits. Now only 3 short months till the 3rd Anniversary bottle!!

Aug 16, 2001 Perversely good beer. I give the Catholic Monks multiple thumbs up for a most eloquent brew. Worth a trip to the Old Scourmont Abbey!

Feb 1, 2002 An absolute pleasure to imbibe. The spicy-fruity flavor is delicious. If you only had to drink one beer forever, this could be it. Very tasty.

Feb 27, 2002 Updated: Feb 17, 2003This is a superb ale! I have drank all of what Chimay has to offer and I have never had any one that I thought was bad! A slight bitterness that first hits the palate, then diminishes into a malty hops flavor! Thick head that is medium lasting as all chimay's are. Bottom Line I loved just like the rest of them!

Jan 21, 2002 This is by far the best beer ever created. A lot of interesting flavors contained within. Good alcohol content too! I’ve got to culture a yeast from this stuff.
