Chimay Grande Réserve Bleue Trappist Ale – known as Chimay Blue by its English-speaking friends – is an iconic and potent Belgian beer. Although these Cistercian Trappist monks have been brewing for over 170 years, Chimay Blue was first created as a Christmas beer in 1954 and has quickly become one of the most famous and loved brews in the Chimay range. Dark, warming and it ages wonderfully, improving and gaining complexity with time. As a result, there’s no rush to gobble this particular beer down, which is why we recommend stocking up for the winter months and letting the bottles develop. Its fruity Port-like aromas, spices and intense notes of dark chocolate, caramel and coffee, all come together to form probably the greatest beer in the world to pair with cheese, especially when served in a traditional Trappist chalice glass.
