Leffe Brune

God dejlig fylde og flot farve. Så går virkelig godt til svinekæber eller lignende.

Pours brown with a big, foamy head. Everything here is wel balanced and smooth. Brown sugar and hazelnuts. Decent and balanced and easy drinking. Not my favorite style but good. Hides the 6.5% alcohol VERY well. Not sure how much longer it will be available at the Riba Smith grocers in Panama.

On tap. Might not have been from the freshest keg, as it was a bit on the flat side. Dark color, no slight head. As others have noted many similarities to the Leffe blonde, but possibly with less flavor. Decent finish, but not long lasting at all. Should probably rerate at some point, as I had a growler a few months back that was fresher, and tastier.

Den klassiske dubbel for begyndere - men den holder nu ganske fint. Har vel endnu ikek mødt et øl-drikkende menneske der ikke kan lide den - og det er måske også dens svaghed. Lige til at gå til. Milde, rare chokolade, karamel sødmer. Et hint af den støvede belgiske stil.

Bottle: Dark brown with frothy beige disappearing head. Aromas of licorice, sweet maltS and chocolate. Flavours of caramel, dark malts, chestnut and espresso. Bitter up front but finisheS sweet. Light body. Just OK.

33cl bottle from threshers. sweet, malty, creamy and well made but utterly boring.

On tap. med mahagony color with reddish hues. med body taste with sweet malts and smoky fruity finish. would drink again

Bottle, 26th Feb 2008. To think that I was blown away by this when I first had it about six or seven years ago! It got me into the world of Belgian beer and I’ve moved on to better things and never looked back. Easy to find these days, it’s dark amber, with a caramel aroma, a malty flavour and a surprisingly light palate. An Abbey Dubbel, as made by a macro brewer :(
