bottle. Poured dark brown with a tan head. Yeasty tart-citrus alcohol aroma. Medium bodied with a tingling mouthfeel. Sweet flavour of plum, spicy cloves, and roasty caramel malt. Finish is yeasty and a bit astringent.

Bottle from St Maarten. A good dubbel, not blowing me away or anything, but solid for shiz. How did I never rate regular Leffe?? Weird.

Bottle. Nice brown pour with a persistent white head. Aromas of yeast, plums and candy sugar. Good fruity sweet taste with some strong yeast and alcohol notes. Good mouthfeel, not too watery and correct carbonation.

Bottle from LCBO. Pours deep cloudy brown. Aroma is sweet, like brown sugar, spicy esters. Taste is similarly sweet, not much hop here, and cabonation is fine. Enjoyable!

Dark brown. Small but lingering beige head. Aroma of spiced red berries and brown sugar. Fruity sweetness is cut somewhat by some discernible hops. Alcohol is hidden. The finish becomes more interesting as it warms - it’s pruney and a little bitter. Balanced but rather dull.

On tap. Brown with a dense low head. Sweet aroma of fruits, spice and caramel. The flavour is sweet, dominated by the malts, but the yeast is also clearly present. Medium-bodied and creamy. A classic.
