Commercial Description:
Chimay Blanche (White), with its typical golden colour, its slightly hazy appearance and its fine head is especially characterised by its aroma which results from an agreeable combination of fresh hops and yeast. The beer's flavour, as sensed in the mouth, comes from the smell of hops: above all it is the fruity notes of muscat and raisins that give this beer a particularly attractive aroma. The aroma complements the touch of bitterness. There is no acidity, but an after-bitterness which melts in the mouth. This top fermented Trappist beer, refermented in the bottle, is not pasteurised.
Ingredients: Water, malted barley, wheat starch, sugar, hop extract and yeast. See Protz and John White

On tap at Pizzaman’s in Milwaukee. Appearance is a golden amber, with a frothy, foamy head. Smell is grainy and a little floral. Tastes sweet, with a hint of green apples--refined and complex, yet simple. Slightly dry and impeccably smooth. Completely intoxicating, and leaves one feeling as if floating on a cloud. Miraculously heavenly.

This most famous of the Trappist brews doesn’t disappoint with its white - it is beautiful on the palate. A rich, spicy and sweet flavor that delights your tongue with taste.

Pours a golden color with a off white particle filled head. Particles flowting around everywhere. Just flowting. Pretty smooth on the palate. Too different for me to want to get it again.

Bottle pours a mildly cloudy golden orange color with a thin white head. Good lacing along the side of the glass. Aroma consists of mostly yeast, sweetness, bananas, biscuit, alcohol, and spices. Flavor is a nice mixture of malts and hops. Dry finish. Very lively carbonation.

An aroma which is fruity and a tad alcoholic leads into a flavor which is grainy and rather hoppy.

On tap in the United States. Poured a cloudy orange, with tan head. Slight yeasty aroma. Slightly biscuity, like shortbread with some sweetness. Subtle hop bitterness, and maybe some toffee or carmel in there. Complex flavor, went down smooth. Would go well with cheese and lots of other foods.

A golden ale with a very thin head. Nice aroma of esters and spice. Nice belgian yeasty flavor and lingering yeasty/bready finish.

En udemærket trippel. Humlen er for bitter og for lidt aromatisk for min smag.
