Chimay - Grande Reserve Barriques 2020 Armagnac 750ml
"Chimay Bleue is a dark beer that gets better over the years. It combines aromas of fruit and chocolate, which transform into a sweet mocha with a spicy character.
Since 2015, Chimay has been honoring an ancestral method; proceed to a second fermentation of the Chimay Blue in wooden barrels.
This method provides exceptional flavors and a complex taste that varies according to the type of barrel used. This beer also goes through a third fermentation in the bottle.
The Grande Réserve barrel fermented is placed in a black bottle to improve the aging potential of the product. It is even better to taste with its special glass.
Armagnac Edition (2020)
The beer boasts a deep dark brown colour. On the nose, a soothing waft of vanilla on a rich foundation of sweet caramel and dark chocolate, associated with a discrete touch of Armagnac.
On the palate, we discover a perfect balance gives room to the fruity aromas. In the aftertaste, we value tannin from the wood and the sweeter malt flavours.
