Leffe Brune

Brewed by InBev Belgium
Style: Abbey Dubbel
Leuven, Belgium

Serve in Trappist glass

Pours a gfreat dark-brown color with a beige foamy head. Aroma of roasted malt added with coffee, chocolate and spices. Malty taste but does not deliver what aroma promises. A good beer after all.

(Draught at Dovetail, Farringdon, London, 4 Aug 2008) Dark brown colour with a frothy, beige head. Malty, fruity nose with chocolate, spices (clove, cardamom) and roasted malt. Malty, sweet taste with notes of chocolate, brown sugar and cola. Got a kind of industrial feel to it (no surprises). Way too sweet. Taste doesn’t manage to deliver what a promising aroma indicates. As with the other Leffe beers, quality seems to be going down, but it’s still drinkable.

boa cerveja. Coloração acobreada - vinho escuro.Espuma sempre presente de boa formação. Sabor caramelo suave, grãos torrados e frutado. Cheiro frutado e levemente torrado

0,33 l bottle. Dark brown color. Nice beer with a complex, fruity taste. Aromas mostly of roasted malt, licorice and various fruits (cherries, raspberries, apples). Very sweet aftertaste. Nothing too special compared to similar Belgian beers, I guess, but still a very good beer.

33 cl bottle. Excellent beer! Nice filling and medium head. Beautiful brown color. Fruity aroma. Nicely balanced and malty. Tastes sweet and medium bitterness. Caramel and toffee. Long and lasting bitter aftertaste.

33cl bottle from Vinmonopolet. It poured a dark reddish-brown, almost black colour with a medium head that disappears fast and leaves a thin white roof in the glass. The aroma smells of dark fruits and malts. The flavour is dry and bitter and tastes of malts, dark fruits and grains. It has a medium long aftertaste.

A very well balanced leffe. The combination of fruits and malts is almost perfect. Very smooth and drinkable.

A decent Abbey Dubbel. Pours dark with a thin head. Aroma of dark fruit. Nice malts, fruit, and grains. Good flavor. Enjoyable.
