Leffe Brune

Brewed by InBev Belgium
Style: Abbey Dubbel
Leuven, Belgium

Bottle. Dark brown colour with a nice average lasting light-brown head. Sweet, malty and hoppy aroma. Flavour of toasty malts, caramel, some spices, hops. Sweetish and bitter finish.

Bottle. Light body for a bruin. Dark brown with light lacing. Wine and raisin aroma. A slight sourness. Yeast gas in the end.

Its definitely better than the blonde though harder to find in the bars. A solid dark beer.

Bottle. Dark brown colour with a beige head. Aroma is cellar notes, fruit. Flavour is cellar notes, fruit, apple, sweet.

Bottled at Lorry. Reddish brown with a nice beige head. Blackcurrant, sugar and dried fruits in the aroma. The flavor is sweet and fruity, with berries, dried fruits, sugar and some grainy notes. Fullbodied, well-carbonated mouthfeel. The finish is sweet, with dried fruits. A nice one that maybe deserves higher scores. Rating: 6-4-6-4-14-3.4 (061120)

Bottle. Haven’t got much new to say about the pour, nose and taste, except that I found out it desveres a higher rating after all these bottles. Especially the flavor. Considering it’s ABV and effervescence, it’s very easy to drink, and if drank slowly, it goes down all night. (080226)

a quite fulfilling and never disappointing taste from Leffe. Very easy to drink and leaves no alcohol taste. Very mild but pleasant after taste of spices and fruites.

A brown, clear beer with a sweet, slight burned aroma. The taste is typical for the style but somewhat uninteresting. It really lacks complexity to get me going. Too sweet when you consider the clean flavour.

I’ve had both bottled and on tap. This is my comparison point for a solid abbey-style beer. Always dependable for a good drink. Never spectacular but never misses. Great beer for having friends over in the fall and you need something in quantity that won’t kill your budget but won’t scare folks away.
