About this release

The newest barrel fermented is now available. Since 2015, Chimay, one of the world's most renowned Trappist breweries, has revived an ancient method: performing a second fermentation of the Grande Reserve in wooden barrels. This classic technique of fermentation and maturation in French oak, American oak, and brandy barrels produces exceptional flavors and a complex taste profile. The taste varies depending on the type of barrel used, making each bottle unique. This beer from the Abbey of Scourmont in Belgium undergoes a triple fermentation process: first in a tank, then in the barrels, and finally in the bottle. This intensive process results in a beer with an impressive alcohol content of 10.5 percent and rich, layered flavors. With more than 160 years of experience brewing authentic Trappist beers, Chimay has made this Grande Réserve Veille en Barriques into a masterpiece of craftsmanship. This premium 750ml bottle is ideal for those seeking a complex, refined Trappist beer with a distinctive character.
