Dark brown amber but you can still see the lines of bubbles. Thick creamy tan head that thins quickly. That distinctive Belgian yeasty fruitcake malt aroma. Sweet yet dry taste. Lots of carbonation. Raisin, fruitcake, malty flavours again distinctively Belgian. Bitter aftertaste. Much better than their blond.

330ml bottle in its own glass as Bocké. Poured dark brown with a small but nice looking head. Good retentions and great lacing. Aroma is chocolate, fruity (raisins). Taste is raisins, dark fruits, roasted malt and brown sugar. and a bit metallic. Rating #124

FUN ELF BEER ! Leffe Brune is readily available but shouldnt be underestimated. It is a fine drink with a good solid chocolate coloured appearance and a sweet smell. The taste is cloved and malty and stays to the end. This beer wont win prizes but is certainly value for money

Bottle 33 Cl. Apperance; Dark dark red, with a lightbrown head. Aroma; roasted malt and chocolate. Flavor; Sweet malt and cholcolate. A sence of bitterness in the end. (In the beginning when the beer was probably to cold, I smell roasted malt. But when the beer was warmer, it got pretty sweet, when the flavor was sweet all the time.)

On tap at the Belgian Beer Cafe in Brisbane. A ruby brown beer with a good sized off white head and nice lacing. The nose and taste is of sweet toffee malts, burnt brown sugar and subtle dark fruits. The finish is very sweet with a subtle spicy hop presence. It is medium bodied with a smooth easy drinking mouthfeel. A little too sweet for my taste but decent nonetheless.

Location: Had it a few time, had it on tap, had it out of the bottle...

Overall Impression: This is a really solid beer, way better then the Blonde, which I don’t love at all...
