Rotating Feature: Chimay's Trappist Ales

Chimay Première (Red)

The original Chimay (7%) first brewed by the monks in 1862. Well-balanced dubbel with flavors of apricots, candy sugar and nutmeg

Chimay Cinq Cents (White)

Cinq Cents (8%) means 500 in French. This bier was brewed to celebrate the 500th anniversary of the City of Chimay in 1966. Dry triple with a hoppy, floral profile

Chimay Grand Réserve (Blue)

Originally brewed as a Christmas bier (9%) in 1948, this unique quadruple quickly became Chimay's flagship and represents more than 50% of the brewery's production. Smooth and creamy with rich flavors of mulling spices and caramel. Improves with age, just like a fine wine
