Chimay White

The Chimay White is an abbey tripel and comes in at 8% alcohol, even though you would never notice that from the taste. This tripel pours golden yellow with a slight orange tint. It has a strong white head that stays and then fades into a ring. The aroma is light and hops-filled with slight fruity characteristics. The taste is instantly bitter which lets the taster know that there is a great deal of hops in this brew, but quietly fades into a dry, fruity taste. The Chimay White is another winner courtesy of the Chimay Trappist monks in Belgium.
