May 8, 2009 Another really enjoyable beer from Leffe. I don’t think I’ve yet had a beer from them that wasn’t really enjoyable. The beer pours out a chesnut brown color with a nice 2" thick light tan head with generous bubbles. Fantastic lacing was left behind. The rich aroma consisted of roasted malts, caramel, hints of dark fruit and chocolate. The body quite wasn’t what I was hoping for and it wound up being a bit thin. Flavors had some nice notes of raisins, scorched marshmallows, candi sugar and it was nicely balanced by a spicy hop character that was really enjoyable. You have to figure that if these guys have been brewing beer for this long, they’ve got something going for them. World class beer here.

May 1, 2009 33cl bottle poured into a Rochefort Trappist glass. Dark brown with quickly dissipating one finger tan head. Nose is spicy and roasty. Tastes very malty, lots of hops and some spice. Slight sourness and a bit of carbonation. Nice beer.

Apr 22, 2009 Bottle. Pours a brownish amber color. Aroma is pretty earthy of malts and coffe hints, toffee ?. A sweet drink with a bit of yeasty bitterness, an odd combo for me. Pretty complex and thick mouthfeel for the palate. Good brew.

Apr 19, 2009 Updated: Sep 3, 2009Dark brown pour with a a fluffy off-white head. Aroma of berries, yeast and cherries, some nougat in there too. A warm fruity flavour hits the tongue immediately, followed by a bittersweet chocolatey finish. Well-carbonated with a creamy mouthfeel. Quite reminiscent of, yet far better than the Blond - no flaws to me. Yummy stuff and far too drinkable!

Apr 18, 2009 Aroma is a little roasty with hints of chocolate, caramel and coffee. It’s a very flavorful beer. It’s sweet and tastes a little like dark chocolate. I like it a lot.

Apr 18, 2009 On tap. Pours a dark brown and has an aroma of bread with hints of some fruitiness. Doesn’t seem to be a true "Brune" as it taste more like a weisse. Still easy drinking and enjoyable.
