Chimay Grande Réserve Fermentée en Barriques - Chêne Français, Chêne Américain (2019)
10.5% Belgian Strong Ale
Soft vanilla notes hit the nose first and unleash a wave of fruity and spicy aromas that blow the taster away. A sublime hint of orange gives the beer a pleasant citrus accent as the perfect match for the sweet caramel. There is also room for a floral undertone with camomile, crowned by a subtle touch of pomegranate and a dash of almond liqueur. A brilliant combination of delicious apricot and candied fruit with creamy mocha epitomises the full-bodied complexity of the beer. The aftertaste also packs a delicious punch, with an astounding spicy kick and a refreshing taste of green apple.
This balance between roundness and powerfulness is best appreciated between 6 months and 1 year after it is bottled.
For this batch, a mixture of barrels has been used.
40% of French oak
60% of American oak
Produced in limited amounts using craft-brewing methods.
The sophisticated bouquet is perfectly showcased when served at a temperature of between 10 and 12°C.

Olutseura Savon Maltureiden hallituksen kokous, kokousoluena kuvan Chimay.
Hyvä, mukavan makumaailman olut vaikka aika onkin tehnyt tehtävänsä ja varmasti olisi ollut parempi ajoissa nautittuna. Hieman lattea vaikka itse tykkäsinkin.

Väri erittäin tumma, heikko vaahto. Maku pehmeä hyvin tasapainoinen, suunmukainen. Hieman voisi olla hapokkuutta enemmän. Vai onko hapot kadonneet, pullotettu 2/2019.
