jfb (2612) - GERMANY - MAY 15, 2013
(bottle) pours a clear deep amber colour with a frothy off-white head. aroma of dark fruit, caramel, dandelions, wheat starch and a hint of alcohol. flavour is mostly the same, with a light sweetness, some cooked vegetables and heavy notes of alcohol and caramel. heavy-bodied with average carbonation.

MichaelBruch (1499) - Wanne-Eickel, GERMANY - MAY 12, 2013
In my opinion the best Leffe so far. Nicely sour in the front with some raspberry and cherry aromas. Reminded me even of a dull geuze. Refreshing without transporting that high abv. Therefore dangerous.
