Dark brown, average head. Heavy aroma of malt and yeast. Sweet malt flavor. Touch of caramel.

Dark brown colour with a huge, frothy head. Caramel aroma with spices and sandalwood. Wonderful, rich taste of caramel,fruit cake and licorice. A touch of dryness at the end exactly balances the sweetness. Better than the Leffe blond.

classic! The brown leffe is not my favourite, I’ve always found the caramel taste was a bit toom much. Good beer still.

Bottle
Dark mahogany, with clingy, pearly white lace that became more and more grey as my pint went down.
Yeast, bread, caramel and alcohol vapors was the arome profile.
Caramel malt, just enough alcohol give it a good body, rounded off with just a touch of bitterness. Not bad at all.

Rich gold color with a bold malty taste. Good hop character. Deceptively mild to have strong alcohol content. Had on tap in Belgium.

Bottle - August 2005 Pours a dark rubby colour, with reddish hues, it develops a beatifull white frothy head that leaves a decent lacing. Aroma is chocolaty and bready, yeasty. Flavour is sour-sweet, with hints of chocolate and raisins, but somehow sour in the middle. Palate is short and medium boddied.

Served too cold in a Belgian bar. Dark brown, with a more hoppy than malty aroma, but with notes of raisin, chocolat and fruits. It tastes quite acidic, with a more bitterish aftertaste.
