Chimay

Label: Chimay
Type: Strong Ale
ABV[%]: 9.0
Packaging: 750 ml Bottle
Brewery: Scourmont Abbey, Chimay, Belgium 

Smell: sweet molasses
Head: thin but thin lacing
Color: cloudy brown
Carbonation: medium
Kick: Scotty, beam me up!
Rating: 7/10

Notes:
Not much of a dialogue today. Just getting to the point.

Smooth but sharp tasting ale. You could drink quite a few of these. Not hoppy, but sweet and malty.

Major part of the sales revenue is to support charitable works of monks on Belgium. Brewed in the walls of a Trappist monastery under the control of a Trappist community.

Silky little aftertaste but a strong first taste. Not as heavy as it looks.

A good piss-up.
