Pours a murkey dark golden colour with a creamy white had that has good retention. Aroma has some light notes of fruit and spice but is prodominately yeast and dough. The flavour starts out with a light fruity sweetness and a touch of spice in the middle which quickly gives way to a bitter hop bite that lasts long after the beer has been swallowed. The mouthfeel is near perfect, creamy and foamy, and smooth. A top notch brew.

does not count  Oct 9, 2008 This is a great beer. I liked it better than the Chimay blue reserve and I typically like bitter dark beer. I will go as far as to say it is now my favorite. It very foamy so I had to wait to drink but it’s excellent. I can’t put my finger on the flavor they added but its creamy and superb. Not to expensive either. I can’t wait to have another.

Oct 9, 2008 Clove and Cinnamon aroma. Murky body clarity with medium body. Moderately bitter initial flavor. My least favorite of the Chimay’s. A little hoppy for the style, but not bad.

Oct 8, 2008 Pours a murky golden color. Good lacing. Aroma of light spice and bready malts. Intial flavor of spicy bready malts with a light alcohol finish. Not bad but I like the Westmalle triple better.

Oct 5, 2008 Bottle. Bubbly golden orange pour with white fizzy head. Spicy and sweet. Lots of yeast, some citrus, and a doughiness on the nose as well as some hops. Similar on the palate with some added apricot/peach and honey notes. Always a pleasure.

Pours a very CO2 active clear golden colour with a nice big head.
Very fresh lime smell with hints of spices.
Really inviting and refreshing beers, makes you want more and more.
Taste is clean hops and spices with a nice warm finish.
Goes down great.
