Chimay Gold Can
Chimay Dorée — The Monks' Beer, in Can
Chimay Dorée is the rarest and most delicate in the Chimay range: a beer that the monks of the Abbey Notre-Dame de Scourmont traditionally reserved for themselves, consumed within the monastery. Now also available in a 33cl can, it is the perfect choice for those who want to discover the most subtle and refined side of Belgian Trappist brewing. Hard to classify into a defined style — it is simply unique.

Chimay’s Secret Beer
For decades, Dorée was only available inside the abbey and in a few select nearby venues. Its limited distribution still makes it one of the most sought-after Trappist beers among enthusiasts. Having it in a can is a privilege that was unthinkable just a few years ago.
