I find the regular blond Leffe rather boring, so I was pleasantly surprised by the brown Leffe. Slight mocha and toffee, strong but well-balanced, nice head. If you find it too hard or too bitter, you can add a bit of grenadine; it blends very nicely with this beer. I personally like it both ways depending on my mood.

Drank in a bottle at home. A very heavy, flavorful beer. Chocolate-smell. Have enjoyed many of these in Bruxelles. Prefer it over the blonde.

Roasted malt, chocolaty aroma. Some hops are present. Golden syrup/toffee sweetness. A weak coffee aroma. Subtle flavours of chocolaty malt and hops. Some spiciness of licorice, maybe a bit peppery. Medium bodied, almost no aftertaste. Quite an average beer, but still very nice.

Looks like a coke in leffe glass. Medium tan head above a brown bubbly juice. Delicate aroma of rippen fruits highly sweet and alcoholic with some flower notes. Sweet rippen fruits like sweet wine with some malt and clove, later on some hoppy flavors. Creamy texture and nice pleasant aftertaste.
