La Chouffe is a clear orange colored beer with floating yeast on the bottom and a light orange head. The aroma of powerful and full of malt, oranges and other spices. The flavor is very nice and mimics the aroma with sweet malts, oranges and other spices. This is a very unintimidating belgian strong ale. carruthm (1122), Seattle, Washington, USA

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 15/20 | Apr 28, 2008 Aroma is a mild fruity yeast scent. Color is a hazy yellow with good carbonation and a thin but tight head. Taste is light and fruity. Starting with a light/medium body it goes down with a fizzy feel. Finish comes in creamy with a sweet fruity and yeasty bread like flavors and a little citrus, then ends with a mild bitterness. After taste has a slight hint of alcohol with a light Belgian yeast taste. Its a good brew but after a bit I did notice a slight skunk, another brewery that for some dumb ass reason puts a good beer in a crap green bottle. RomanW70 (297), Providence, Rhode Island, USA

| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 8/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Apr 18, 2008 750 pours a hazed yellow to orange gold with a large bright white head that clings and laces well. The aroma is yeasty, floral, sunshine meadow, fruity, and coriander. The flavor has an initial honey sweetness, followed by spice, some slight hop presence, and a lingering banana like note followed by slight sour citrus. The body is lively and refreshing. The alcohol is well hidden. Overall, I’m glad I finally tried this one. wyzzywyz22 (777), Wirral, Merseyside, England
