It began with twelve monks, two horses, and a patch of soggy forest nobody wanted.
It became one of the most remarkable breweries in the world.
The beer they make is outstanding, but that’s perhaps the least impressive part of the story. This brewery was founded in a monastery and run by monks with the goal of improving life in the surrounding region.
But the Nazis almost destroyed it.
And yet it only got better. The brewery grew into a global brand whose profits support the Abbey Notre-Dame de Scourmont and charitable causes in the surrounding Chimay region.
Join Nathan Vadeboncoeur, the owner and brewer at Good Cheer, for a guided tasting of five Chimay beers. He’ll tell the story of the Chimay Brewery and guide you through the unique flavours they helped pioneer.
