Bottle.33cl. Pours a vary dark amber brown Colour with yeast in the glass. Nice big head which kinda lingers. Highly carbonated and yeasty which greatly contributes to the overall enjoyment of the beverage.

Damn Good. Third beer I tried at Beerfest in Orlando yesterday. Chimay makes world class beers. When I found the Chimay booth, I thought I was at the Unibroue booth and was asking for the Trois Pistoles, woops already crazy without any beer in me yet.

Bottle pours hazy amber/brown with thin white head. Aroma is dark fruits and alcohol. First taste is sweet but it is very well balanced. Finish is clean. Carbonation is perfect. Just as good as the grand reserve.

Bouteille de 750 ml. Arômes de levure belge et de fruits mûrs. Robe rouge bourgogne, plusieurs particules en suspension. Belle mousse, mais qui disparaît rapidement. Très veloutée en bouche, la levure accompagne une touche de caramel et de chocolat. Puis les fruits mûrs mènent à une finale légèrement amère où pointe également l’alcool.

Moderate malty and heavy yeastly aroma leaves no doubt of the belgian abbey product.Very nice creamy, light brown head. Cloudy look with some large particles. Maybe it should be tapped mor slowly? Brown colour. Moderate sweet lasting taste. Yeast is very present, so if you don’t like that - live Chimay for the rest us ;-)
