Poured from 11.2oz short bottle into Chimay goblet.

A - Poured a deep thick reddish brown with thin head that hung around. Nice even carbonation bubbling from all throughout the glass.

S - Grape, apple, cranberry, fruit medley. Really strong and really sweet in a good way.

T - Fantastic. Thick and rich fruit medley of grape, cherry, apple, and plum.

M - Vibrant and alive. Good aftertaste. Very even feeling.

D - Very drinkable and delicious. Somewhat thick and filling though so I couldn't see drinking a lot of this in an evening.

Chimay blue grand reserve '11

Style/abv: quadruple/9%

Smell: dark leather and oak

Taste: scotch-like spice with an oaky sweetness adjunct with luxuriously sweet dark cocoa and cream--toast and black licorice are other notable flavors

This beer pairs impeccably well with beniges and a scoop of vanilla bean on top with mocha and blueberry drizzle; it's also great with gourmet burgers and bacon
