3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
330 ml. bottle. Cloudy brown colour, with a head that dissipates too quickly and leaves almost no lace. Smells of dark fruits, caramel, spices. Body is a bit watery, and mouth has again cark fruits, plums, caramel and some spices. It’s a bit of a deception to me when compared to Chimay Blue or White, everything is too soft. I may have to review again when I have another bottle, better the big one.
3.4 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle shared with (and courtasy of) Inbreak and ClubGonzo. Vintage 2009. Pours a very cloudy brown colour with a medium light beige head. A lovely sweet aroma of dried fruit, leather, chocolate and brown sugar. Really a round and nice smell on this. The dried fruit is also well pronounced in the flavour along wih dades, wort and sweet leather. Light bitterness in the end. Soft and slick, and a bit watery mouthfeel. The aroma is fantastic but the flavour is not following.
4.2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
Dark red-ruby color with creamy tan white head which lasts. Caramel, malts and some dark sweet fruits, probably some kind of berries. You smell and taste all the above. Live carbonation and a very smooth body. Mild bitter finish with a little alcohol. A great beer.... Truly great....
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20

4.2 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
Supergod, rund smak, fyllig. Behöver lagras något år för att få rätta balansen.
3.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Murky brown colour and smooth, white head. Aroma has some malts but it’s not very strong. Soft and smooth on the palate, lively carbonation. Taste is not too strong either, but it stays in your mouth for a while. I can’t quite identify the flavours but it has very beer-ish feel to it. It’s a decent beer but nothing spectacular.
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
pours a nice dark red/ ruby color, with a fissy head. The aroma is malty, fruity, grassy. The flavor is malt with caramel up front followed buy fruit to the rear tasting some of raisins, and other fruit i cant depict with the astringent taste to the rear contributing to some of the bitterness. The palate is very smooth, while feeling like a heavier body. Overall this is a very well balances beer, and would recommend
2.7 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 13/20
Nice red coloted with a decent home. Aroma has a sweet hint of cookie dough. The taste is very sweet and kind of cherry like. A good trappistes
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Aroma is that characteristic of all Chimay beers. Sweet bread, cookie dough, and candy sugar. Appearance is dark brown to dark orange with a quick fading head and a great deal of particulate. Taste is sweet and resembles that of cookie dough. Very soft on the palate with minimal carbonation. Overall, I would classify this as a "dessert beer". It drinks decent on alone, but I would really like to try it with tiramisu or creme brulee. (just like the "blue" variety of Chimay) This is a good brew and I can’t wait to try it with dessert, but it is one of the most overrated beers of all time.
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
0,75 cl bottle. Fruity belgish trppist beer. Dark browm color, small white head, fruity, berries. In the finish is quite bitter but not too much alcohol.
