		<description><![CDATA[Candied sugar and sweet toasted malts make up a predominant amount of the flavor. While it's very sweet it's still a very thin, watered down flavor. There is some bready-malts that come through on the end but it's just not give this beer any sort of body. There is pretty much zero hop bitterness or taste. Which is would have really helped cut through the heavy sweetness of this beer. The finish is muddy and malty with a hint of alcohol.  ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This was a pleasure to drink. Our favorite beer from the St. Bernardus lineup. The fruity malt flavors are wonderfully balanced with the softnotes of warm biscuits and sweet hops. The after taste is light and fruity with a slight hop bitterness. While I wouldn't consider this (or any Belgian ale) to be a session beer you can easily drink more than one without becoming overcome with the flavor.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This was a strong beer with full flavors lasting long after you have finished the beer. The bitter hopiness is balanced well with the doughy sweet flavors. This is a good beer but not the best out of the St. Bernardus lineup. The bitterness of this particular selection of St. Bernardus is much stronger the rest of their beers.]]></description>

History &#8211; The Chimay Brewery (&#8220;Bières de Chimay&#8221;) is a Belgian brewery founded inside Scourmont Abbey, in the Belgian municipality of Chimay in 1862. The brewery produces three widely distributed [...]]]></description>
