0.75L. Big head that lasts for quite. a while, beautifull dark brown colour with red tint, nice flavours of coffee and caramel. medium body . Very good alongside a chicken curry. the beer and the curry complemented one another and the beer was smooth with a long and pleasant aftertaste.

Poured a huge castle of frothy head over a reddish brow body. Smelled of roasted malts and brown sugar. The taste had a faint hop bitterness, but was characterized by roasted toffee, burnt sugar, and nice raisins. Quick finish. The palate was a bit oily, but very clean and bubbly. My favorite of the Leffes.

Nov 20, 2008 A light and more commercial version of a trappist beer. Good head, good carbonation. Caramel, toasted malt, toffee and some nuts. Really easy to drink, and delicious. Very good considering it’s an industrial beer.

Nov 18, 2008 Bottle, 33cl. Pours dark amber, with short-living off-white head. Malt and molasses on the nose, and similar on the palate with yeast undertones. But not that much going on with it, overall. A shadow of a beer in comparison to a genuine secondarily fermented beer, and added sugar is no substitute.

Oct 29, 2008 Deep brown flat color from tap. Complex fruit sweetness. Nice medium body. One glass was great two might be a bit to much.

Oct 25, 2008 Had this at the Cafe Leffe in Paris, my only chance to try a new beer in an entire week in the city, a desolate wasteland of Kronenbourg and Heinekin. Deep brown, nice head. Flavor is lush malts, caramel accented, with loads of dark fruit. Quite complex and enjoyable. Would get more love here I suspect if it wasn’t an InBev product. Score perhaps inflated a bit by what the alternatives were during the week.
