Only the most<br />

studious of monks<br />

could produce a<br />

Trappist beer good<br />

enough to get the<br />

perfect score on<br />

ratebeer.com. We<br />

enter the complex<br />

flavours and<br />

powerful aromas<br />

of Chimay Blue.<br />

Nestled in the gentle,<br />

green and relatively<br />

flat country side of<br />

southern Belgium, just three<br />

kilometres from the French<br />

border, stands the humble<br />

Scourmont Abbey. Since<br />

1850, this plateau has been<br />

home to a group of Trappist<br />

monks from the nearby<br />

village of Chimay, where life<br />

is characterised by prayer,<br />

reading, manual work, and<br />

also producing one of highest<br />

rated Trappist beers in the<br />

craft beer universe.<br />

THE<br />

PERFECTION. JUST<br />
