Dark body with a reddish hue. Sweet aroma with malts, berries. Sweet flavour, with licquor, spices, light sugar, autumn fruits.

Bière aux arômes d’épices de couleur brune et possédant un généreux collet blanc, la Leffe Radieuse nous présente un goût fort, un peu sucré au début mais avec une finale amer. Bonne Bière équilibrée rappelant le sirop de grand-mère. A brown Belgisch beer with multiple spices aromas and possessing a generous white foam collar, Leffe Radieuse presents a strong taste, a bit sweet at first but then sour. A good balanced beer remembering me my grandmother’s syrup.

Large off white head, light carbonation.Fresh aroma, herby, some hops. Enjoyable taste, bitter sweet finish. bitter stays long. A very special beer.

dark color, thin head,..warm kandy aroma with a dry nice finisch good abbey!

Appearance - body is clear, a nice deep burnt orange colour, fine bubbly off-white head. Aroma - nose is big, yeasty, with tart fruits, grainy, a bit bready, touch of candy and spice. Palate/Flavour - body is light, medium-full, fluffy and creamy, tart, lots of yeast, fruit spices, a cloying tart yeasty finish.

Bottle at home. Pours an amber color with a creamy tan head. Aroma of fruits, cinnamon, some cream, spices, clove and a malty base. Flavor is surprisingly bitter, with only a hint of sweetness and very spicy. Quite ok creamy texture and a bitter finish.

Länge sedan jag drack en Leffe men första gången jag provade Radieuse. Den sticker ut lite med sin syrlighet a la maltvinäger. Den balseras väl av karamellsötma med honung och torkad frukt. En lite stramare finish med bra beska gör också att den håller ihop väl. Minus för mycket metallsmak i början.
