Bottle from Onlyfinebeer. Poured a clear dark amber colour, with a good, just off-white head. Aroma is fresh and spicey with some background sweet maltiness. Interesting taste; malty, fruity, lightly roasted.The flavour seems to go through distinct and quite different phases, a little disjointed perhaps; taste is perhaps at its most enjoyable near the end. Nice sweet and slightly bitter aftertaste. Full bodied, creamy and smooth. It’s growing on me as I type.

Poured a beautiful dark amber with tiny bubbles of carbonation and creamy head with lacing. Slightly sweet with fruit tones. Well balanced malt and yeast flavor. A tasty, velvety smooth beer.

Bouteille de 33 cl. bu au Pub St-Alexandre. Couleur bourgogne foncée, collet moyen. Bon arome de malte très fruité et un peu épicé. Très bon goût de malte épicé et un peu sucré.

UPDATED: OCT 13, 2008 Existem certas cervejas que nos remetem a certos lugares ou situações. A Leffe Radieuse pra mim é sinônimo de Roma, Trastevere, Campo di Fiori, Aristocampo, porchetta e felicidade. Muita felicidade... Tomada a princípio na Suíça, depois na Itália, essa breja pode agora ser degustada em Terra Brasilis, graças às importadoras. Coloração avermelhada, translúcida, com um creme bege escuro de excelente formação e longa duração, deixando uma camada perene e marcas nas laterais da taça. A primeira impressão é de lúpulo e malte, muito bem equilibrados. Após, cravo. Muito cravo! Em algum lugar aparecem frutas vermelhas, possivelmente cereja. Não senti o coentro presente na fórmula. Há um leve adocicado, assim como um suave amargor. O álcool é presente, mas na medida. A carbonatação é média. A combinação disso tudo, ao meu ver, é perfeita. Excelente retrogosto e drinkability. Grande breja! Se você cruzar com ela, nem pense em não experimentá-la...

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.
