Sensory Description:

Pouring a luminous golden hue with a fine, persistent head, this beer reveals a slight haze characteristic of bottle conditioning. The aroma is immediately inviting, marked by fresh hops mingling with the signature Chimay yeast character. Delicate notes of muscat grapes, raisins, and mild esters float on the nose. On the palate, fruity complexity shines, juicy orchard fruits meet herbal undertones and light spice, carried by an effervescent mouthfeel and a gently warming alcohol presence. The finish is crisp, dry, and elegantly balanced.
