Chimay Rouge (Red)

Bottle 330ml, 2008. Hazy copper colour, small light brown head. Fruity aroma, citrus and kiwi in it. Pretty light body, taste has fresh fruits, raisin, hint of nuts; yeast in the finnish.

Pours a hazy amber color, very inviting. Has a very malty flavor, incredibly smooth, and just enough bite to balance out the sweet flavors. Has a nice thick feel, and carbonated just right. An excellent beer!

A delicious-looking cloudy brown beer with a large tan head that lasts. The aroma is a pleasant sweet fruity malt-based smell with some earthy and yeasty notes. The flavor is a bit weaker, but interesting, with some dark and dried fruit with roasty notes. Mouthfeel is a little thin.

750ml bottle. from notes, aroma is red fruits, taste is a bit simple. Rating #71

Bottle. Look: Red brown. Long lasting head. Smell: Fruit, yeast, sugar. Typical belgian abbey brew smell. Taste: Sweet, almost too sweet. Fruit. Chocolate. Overall: Too sweet and not as complex as many other abbey brews. Big dissapointment.

33cl bottle from Systembolaget. Grey/brown/plum with a yellowish head. Lots of fruit and belgian yeast in the aroma. Sweet smooth mouthfeel. I get the impression of a distorted kind of macro brew.

Bottle. Pours a dark amber color with a large, just a bit off-white head. Lacing is good. Aromas of port, apricot, orange, and roasted malts. Nice mouthfeel with a creamy start and an oily finish. Flavors of malts, wine, and more citrus fruit. Wonderful beer.

Hazy red color with a large beige head. Aroma: fruit, malt, caramel, yeast. Taste: Malty sweetness, caramel, yeast, orange, a little bitterness. Very good mouthfeel. Great brew.
