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.

Bottle.33cl. Spicy rich aroma. Great appearance, deep brown with almost a perfect off white dough head. Long and pleasant aftertaste.

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.

on tape from seattle’s deluxe. roasted chestnut color and a spice aroma, smooth balance and the taste that you would expect from a belgian abbey dubbel.

Bottle. Malt, ripe fruits, nuts and a hint of wine in aroma. Clear gilden dark redbrown colour with large beige head. Sweet malt, nuts and hust a bit of coffee in flavour.

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.

Bottle 33cl. Brown clear body with a light brown head. Aroma is caramel. Taste: 1st mouthfull was a bit waterish. I also tasted caramel and spices.
