Chimay Blanche (White), with its typical golden colour, its
slightly hazy appearance and its fine head is especially
characterised by its aroma which results from an agreeable
combination of fresh hops and yeast. The beer's flavour, as
sensed in the mouth, comes from the smell of hops: above all it
is the fruity notes of muscat and raisins that give this beer a
particularly attractive aroma. The aroma complements the touch
of bitterness. There is no acidity, but an after-bitterness
which melts in the mouth. This top fermented Trappist beer,
refermented in the bottle, is not pasteurised.

"Bright red-amber. Medium-bodied. Mild bitterness. Perfumed,
dried sweet herbal hop aromas. Full carbonated mouthfeel
has toasty caramel malt flavors with prominent dried herbal hop
character taking hold through the finish. Carbonation is rather
high and vigorous." -Beverage Tasting Institute

Has a very distinctive bouquet: yeasty, fruity and slightly
smoky. In palate, it has notes of port, raisins and black
chocolate.

It has a very big head indeed - pour it gently - and a very
clean palate, beginning with a dry, lightly citric
fruitiness, and finishing with a distinctive and delicate,
perfumy, hop character. Very light and fluffy in texture,
giving little hint of its strength.

"Bright chestnut hue. Rich sweet malt and
fruit nose. Moderately full-bodied with a lively carbonation.
The malt has a substantial, dry, fruitiness. Hops are supportive
and well-balanced. Very authentically Belgian in style with a
wonderful fruity, malty expression. A meal in a glass. Try with
with hearty foods. " -Beverage Testing Institute

"Initial nosing passes encounter seductive scents of beef
boullion, rose petals, soy sauce and sweet malt. Palate entry is
almost wine-like in texture as dry to bitter tastes of coffee
and soy sauce overtake the taste buds; by midpalate, a sweet
maltiness, almost like cherry juice, takes command and carries
through to the winey, grapy, fruity, malty and hoppy-bitter
aftertaste." -Wine Enthusiast

The
absolute top quality in the hierarchy of the St. Bernardus
beers. It is also the beer with the highest alcohol content
(10.50 %). A dark ivory coloured beer with a high
fermentation. The show piece of the brewery. Thanks to its
soft and unconditionally genuine aroma, the beer can be
smoothly tasted. The Abt has a very fruity flavour.

This beer, with high fermentation, has a pale amber colour and a
flowery, fruity taste with a harmonious balance between sweet
and sour (8% alcohol content). This beer has a thick and vivid
froth and strikes by its balanced taste with a delicate
bitterness.

"Hazy old gold color. Rich spicy, orange peel and spice
aromas. Rich frothy entry leads to a vibrant tart and fruity
full-bodied palate with wheaty malt, orange peel, honey,
dried peaches and apricot and spice flavors with a touch of
salt. Finishes with a long wheat cracker, honey, citrus and
spice fade. This is a truly great beer." -Beverage
