Leffe Brune

Brown with a reddish tinge and large white head. Cloying Belgian yeast aroma. Flavour is sweet and caramely with a little Belgian character to it.

Dark brown pour, decent head. Malty, sweet aroma. Some mild dark fruit as well. Flavor is similar. Lots of brown sugar sweetness with mild fruit. Pretty straight forward, decent brew.

33cl bottle, Alko. Pours brown color, beige head. Aroma is of roasted malt mainly. Flavor is kinda sweet caramel, slightly bitter. The alcohol shines through a little too much though.

Draught (Drink, Tallinn) - Dark brown with red tinges. Slightly musty aroma with notes of dried fruit and syrup. The taste is slightly tart with dried fruit, caramel and some sharp and sweet notes.

Oh no, this is not a beer that I like, please give me another beer, I can’t stand the taste at all

Bottle at Kerttu, Turku. Dark ruby, nearly black, frothy staying beige head. Mild molassy aroma, hint metal and cocoa. Very simple flavor, roasty molasses, hint of licorice, sweetness, reminds me a bit of the cheaper Baltic porter, noticable alcohol in the finish along with some syrupy cocoa and light herbs. Smooth, quite full palate. Mostly roasted sugar, very simple, the absolute contrast to Fantome in the Belgian scene.

The beer was average. The aroma is sweet but it is not too noticable. The beer has a nice dark rosted malt flavor. Not a bad beer, but as a belgiun abbey style I was disappointed.

Bottle, 33cl. Pours a brown beer with an offwhite head. The aroma is malts with notes of canesugar, spices, dried fruits and esters. The flavor is sweet with slight bitterness and notes of esters. The palate is slightly bitter. Overall a good beer.
