The Chimay Blue Cap, “baptized'”Grande Reserve” in 750 ml bottles is a dark Trappist beer with a powerful aroma, the complex flavour of which improves across the years. It was first brewed as a Christmas beer, explaining the presence of a “vintage”.This | Shelf life : may be kept several years

APPEARANCE: in a word beautiful. slightly cloudy pale yellow with a big white pillow for a head, excellent retention and high amount of carbonation, champagne like effervescense. it states “pour unhurriedly” on the bottle and this advice should be heeded as the head on this beer is unrelenting with a good amount of lacing on the glass. I have never given a rating of 5 on appearance…until now. SMELL: very sweet, champagne, white grapes, pears, apples, banana, lemon. very complex.TASTE: the nose follows the taste. it reminds me of sweet champagne. there is a lot going on here. The Belgians really like this beer and now I know why. the 8.5% alcohol is nearly imperceptible. bubbly and dry with white grapes, pears apples, banana and lemon. it’s not overly hoppy but I don’t care, everything is in balance and it works.PALATE: light body, highly carbonated with dry finish.OVERALL: I truly enjoyed this beer. Ben Franklin once said “Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy.” and that sentiment certainly applies to this beer.
