The barrel-aged Chimay Grande Reserve stands out from classic Chimay Grande Reserve thanks to the many nuances provided by the additional fermentation in wooden barrels. On the eye, the beer boasts a deep brown robe with a bright glint. Its extremely fine and smooth foam also possesses a slight shade of cream. On the nose, notes of black tea, jasmine and wood are equally predominant. On the palate, the woodiness cloaks the bread crust, roasting, mocha and Cognac aromas as well as the empyreumatical notes. This edition of barrel-aged Chimay Grande Reserve boasts an excellent blend of the characters of Chimay Grande Reserve and Cognac. This balance between roundness and powerfulness is best appreciated between 6 months and 1 year after it is bottled.
