Chimay - Grande Reserve Barriques 2021 Rum 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.
Rum Edition (2021)
Rum is a perfect match for the deliciously complex Chimay Grande Réserve, adding an amazing tropical twist to the mix. Aromas of dried fruit, apricot and peach combine beautifully with this beer’s intense caramel, chocolatey flavour. Bold oak, vanilla, orange and brown candy sugar, the typical accents delivered by rum casks, are layered with subtle notes of hazelnut and almond. The aftertaste has ripe banana and a surprising aromatic burst of spice bread. A superb assemblage, with the distinct and elegant aroma of rum as a backbone.
