Nice brown colour with a sweet fruity aroma. Starts off sweet and spicy, finishes with alcohol notes and some bitterness. Very nice strong Belgian ale.

UPDATED: JAN 27, 2012 330ml bottle, trappist glass, from de Bier Haus Tauranga. Red brown amber hue, light beige bubbly head quickly diminishing to a ring around the top, with minimal lacing. Complex mixture of sweet fruitiness - cherry, plum, banana, citrus, caramel, and spiciness - coriander and cloves. Kept smelling cheese - new to me for a beer aroma. Sweet fruity malty with bitter sweet finish, medium bodied, oily texture like a thin syrup. Enjoyed this more the first time I had it but still a good one though preferred the Leffe Blond.

This reddish ale is really good. The whole situation of cherry and caramel that u could find out as you taste it will make u feel absolutely super.

Appearance: Moderately transparent brown.
Aroma: Fragrant candy sugar, grilled tomato & celery, coriander, orange, roasted sweet caramel and honey.
Flavor: Charred grain, roasted/burnt caramel, "dried" orange malt (ie not fresh or juicy), spice/coriander, burnt caramel. Finishes with a sustained sweetness balanced by burnt caramel, orange malt and spice that eventually ends with bitter grapefruit rind.
Comment: Moderately complex. A nice relief from cheap adjunct filled Japanese lagers.

Dark but clear ruby colouring. Quite a bit of carbonation and a biege head. Sweet, almost cloying aroma of hops. Bitter and strong like most belgian ales. Very nice.

We begonnen de avond met een lekkere Leffe ... later zag ik pas dat het alcoholpercentage behoorlijk was ... maar dat was er niet aan af te proeven.
