Leffe Brune

Brewed by InBev Belgium
Style: Abbey Dubbel
Leuven, Belgium

Poured the colour of mudcake with a moderate beige head. The nose is dominated by alcohol but with hints of chocolate and strong tea. The palate is full and creamy. Some raisiny fruit in the middle but the dominant flavour is pure alcohol.

Intens brown color with beige foam. Light touch of roasted malts, and candy sugar. Smooth taste with coffee accent, caramel and malts. slight bitter touch in the end. Not so good.

Bottle. Brown/amber, beige dense head. Yeast, fruit, raisins, caramel in aroma. Flavour is sweet, caramel, banana and alcohol. Years ago this beer would have scored higher with me. Still a nice beer...

On tap. Clear dark ruby with off white head. Aroma is port and pickled plum. Flavor is caramel, malt, metallic.

Aroma with roasted malts, sweetness, fruityness and also nuts. Actually a wheat aroma, just more roasted and spiced. A little thin beer. Some sourishness and nuts in the taste which lasts all through the aftertaste. Quite spicy beer with a correct amount of bitter hops. It reminds me of a mix between a belgian ale and an irish stout. The spice gives the beer character and compensates a little for the missing body. Noticeable alcohol, but not obvious.

Bottle, nice dark brown color, well balanced flavor and aroma, wonderful beer, its not imported in Louisiana so I am out of luck

Bottle. Pours dark brown with a medium tan head. Aroma is chocalate, sugar, clove. Flavor is similar, with clove and chocolate dominating the flavor. Low carbonation. Fruity taste.
