150 (Green) 330ml
This special edition strong blonde ale was first brewed in 2012 to celebrate the brewery's 150th anniversary. Turning to Saaz and Hallertau Mittelfrüh hops for their ancient aromatic qualities the Trappist monks have added a new twist to the typical Belgian blonde beer. The earthiness which comes from these Germanic and Bohemian hops, mixed with a natural spiciness, brings out an unusual selection of notes in the green label. Alongside this secret spices have been added showcasing the Trappist brewmasters perfection of the craft for this celebration of Chimay’s heritage. Best served from 6 to 8°C.

The monastery +
The Abbey of Notre-Dame de Scourmont
The Trappist brothers of Scormont Abbey, Chimay, have been brewing since 1862. Using their own natural spring water, which impart a unique flavour, the monks were the first monastery to use the official 'Trappist' designation, which safeguards the strict quality standards found in their drinks. As Cistercians of the Strict Observance, the monks live life in silence, totally withdrawn from the modern world. Over time they have developed their products to include their famous cheese as well as expanding the original single line of beer to a total of 7 or 8 when including special brews such as the rare Grand Reserve. Chimay is the most famous of all the Trappist beers and has led the way in having monastic products recognised for their high quality. The abbey uses its significant proceeds to support many charitable institutions and smaller monasteries, as well as employing over 30% of the local town.
