Chimay Grande Réserve (Blue) 2010 330ml, 9% - Belgium

Pours brown with a one finger tan head.

Love this aroma! Yeast, malts, spices and hints of fruits.

Malts, yeast, hops,spices, caramel and dark fruits in the flavor.

Easy to drink and highly enjoyable!

Chimay Grande Réserve (Blue) 2006 750ml, 9% - Belgium

I'll try to make this review short and not repeat the 2009 characteristics.

Same appearance as the 2009 bottle.

The smell is more fruity. Great touch of apples here.

The taste is more sour now, some citrus is there for sure. The spices are lighter here.

The character became more pronounced!

Chimay Grande Réserve (Blue) 2009 750ml, 9% - Belgium

Poured lovely brown color with a tan 1.5 finger head.

Complex smell. Lot's of dark fruits and spices going on here. I even get some wood.

Starts off with plums, raisins and prunes. There's definitely some caramel there. Bitter aftertaste with a gentle touch of alcohol.

And now to the 2006 bottle.

Chimay Tripel (White) 750ml, 8% - Belgium

Lovely orange color tapped with a charming two finger air full head. Once the beer was settled, it left some sticky lacing around the glass.

Freshness! Makes me think of summer. Earthly hops, together with a flower bouquet.

Pleasant hoppy taste through out the whole glass. Dark berries, black rowan, with a scent of perfume. Some citrus and orange peels.

Another great beer from Chimay.

Chimay Première (Red) 750ml, 7% - Belgium

It's time to review all three Chimays back to back + addition Réserve 2006. :)

Dark cherry appearance with a thick cappuccino head. Looks sturdy.

Sweet floral aroma, quite fruity. Hints of spices.

Winter cherry flavor with a slightly hoppy bitterness. Some yeast is present in the taste.

Medium body, smooth and silky. Nice carbonation on top of that. It's something you want to sit and sip slowly on. Lovely dubbel.
