Overall similarity
hopIQ take
Chemu Blonde if you want hop-forward bite and American clarity,
Ch'Ti Blonde if you want Belgian softness and smooth drinkability.
The Italian craft beer punches harder—38 IBUs feel present, almost assertive—while the French brewery's take is gentler despite being stronger in alcohol. Neither is aggressive; it's really about whether you're craving definition or comfort.

Chemu Blonde
Chemu Blonde hits you with a clean, piney hop character that doesn't linger aggressively but stays present throughout. At 5% ABV it feels lighter, almost taut—the kind of beer that tastes crisp without being thin. There's a subtle grain sweetness underneath, but the hops are doing most of the talking. It's the kind of pale ale that makes you think about what you're drinking.
Ch'Ti Blonde
Ch'Ti Blonde is disarmingly smooth—the 6.4% ABV sits in your mouth without demanding attention. It's softer than you'd expect from a pale ale, with a rounded malt backbone and only a gentle, almost herbal hop suggestion at the finish. The Belgian yeast work is subtle but there; it gives the beer a slight fruity whisper rather than any funk. This one goes down easy.
