Chimay Blue, Chimay Grande Reserve: Review
by andaryl | Jun 19 '01
Trappist ale, that is the excellent work of celibate Belgian monks. One of the best and most complex beers in the world. 4.5 Stars: Not as good as Orval

I don't know about your side of the country, but here in NJ you can get those gift packages, especially around Christmas, where 2-4 bottles are packed with the original glass. That's how I got my Hoegarden and Duvel glasses; Chimay was a bit heavy for my taste ;)

Catchy Title (Reply to this comment)

...why change it?

You're right about the goblet - it surprised me the first time I had trappist beers in Belgium, but now I know it makes a difference.

Another great review. Cheers!

Well I got $0.34 so far, that's $0.17 an hour, probably dropping to $0.10 an hour if you include researching and writing the review.

That's the idea. Once it's dropped off the 'Just In' pages I'll change it to something boring.

....I always wondered what this one was like- had the red and white. But now that I am on an anti-beer regimen, I guess I will just have to enjoy your great review and be happy with that.

Sigh......

Have to say I am feeling much better since not having any ales for a while. Maybe after a time I can have one once in a while.

Sigh......

Great review,
Capri

Two hours to drink the bottle? What's the deal? Where you getting paid by the hour?

I come from England and we had a 'pub' in the family for over 100 years. Selling it when my grandmother died. I grew up with all the local beers, but so enjoy reading of other products throughout the world.

Here in Florida, I tend to drink water. Shame on me.

Great review.
Thanks,
Susan.
