IslandHaole (1053) - Yokosuka-Shi, Kanagawa-Ken, JAPAN - FEB 9, 2004
A nice dark amber color, clear for a Belgian. Small head but good lacing. Has that fruit filled pastry scent common with Belgians. Like an apple cinnamon danish with almond slices sprinkled over it. A warming spicyness on the lips, like biting a slice of fresh ginger. Sweet but not cloying. All said, it's a solid brew.

mike1977ok (1037) - NETHERLANDS - JAN 2, 2008
Pale red brown colour with thin but long lasting head. Aroma is rich & fruity with a little maltiness coming through too. This is very smooth and silky beer with flavours of cranberries and other red fruits leading to a lightly sweet finish.

maneliquor (1008) - Perth, AUSTRALIA - MAY 5, 2011
Bottle from Mane Liquor. Pours a murky amber with a tall white head sitting atop. Dark fruits and malt make up the bulk of the aroma. Some caramel coming through in the taste. Not a fan of this one. Felt like it was over carbonated leaving a sticky and bubbly feeling in the back of the throat. Not my kind of beer

Diogène (990) - Mirabel, Quebec, CANADA - NOV 19, 2009
Bottle from LCBO Leffe gift pack. Pours a clear amber with a thin off white foamy head. Average retention and beautiful lacing. Aroma is honey, cloves, yeast, sugar, sweet malt, spices, apples, cherries herbal hops and some alcohol. Flavor is a bit more fruity than expected with sweet cherries, apples, sweet malt, candy sugar, yeast herbal hops. Final is very warming with alcohol and a light touch of hops bitterness. A bit of cardboard in the aftertaste. Medium body with very fine bubbles.
