33cl bottle. Reddish with off-white head, good lacing, beautiful lasting. Aroma is moderate toasted malts, caramel, brown sugar, vinous and sweet. Flavour is sweet and long on palate, alcoholic. Good balance. Carbonation is medium. Body is medium to high.

Pours a dark orange colour has a fair amount of carbonation but calms quickly has an aroma of wheat and dark fruits and tastes fairly smooth for a 8.2% the best out of the leffe range.

lusikka (2062) - Tampere, FINLAND - NOV 15, 2011
330 ml bottle.
Pours an amber colour with a large, foamy, white head. Quite stuffy aroma of caramel malts, wheat and orange. Aroma of caramel malts, quite strong hops, orange, wheat, lemon and yeast. Medium bodied, thick and dry mouthfeel with a warming, fruity and spicy finish. Quite spicy for a Belgian Strong Ale. Enjoyable.
