3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20Unfortunately I lost the notes I made for this. I do remember the taste was extremely complex, rich and enjoyable. Plums, raisins, roasted malts, wood, caramel, cherry, sour funk, yeast, bread and orange. This beer was great.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
On tap at Rockbass Grill in Harrisburg, PA. This is my first Chimay brew, and it was a mostly underwhelming experience. Not much stood out. Guess I'll have to try the Blue next.

3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
33cl bottle. Pères Trappistes.
Appearance: dark brown beer, nice stable off white head.
Nose: very fruity, some sugar, something like peanut smell? very strange nose, had to describe.
Taste: bitter finish, rather fruity, little wood like, some malts, some dried fruits. But a strange dry out effect in the mouth, almost like putting flour on my tongue...
Though, decent beer altogether!

Caramel, nuts, toast, herbs, clove, smoke, woody, fruity apricot aroma, silky sensation, pleasant adstringency, refermented in the bottle and not pasteurised
3.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Bottle - can’t remember where in Brussels. Pours very dark but due to the unneccesarily moody lighting in the bar I couldn’t say exactly. Smooth liquorice and fruit cake. Not as full bodied as the bleue, which I prefer.
