Chimay Biere Ale Grande Reserve

Chimay Biere Ale Grande Reserve

Chimay Grande Réserve is a classic Belgian Trappist ale brewed by the monks of Scourmont Abbey. It is a strong, bottle-conditioned beer known for its rich complexity and aging potential. Originally introduced as a Christmas beer, it became a year-round flagship release. The beer is fermented with the abbey’s proprietary yeast and undergoes secondary fermentation in the bottle, developing deeper flavor over time.
