Bottle, a deep brown colour with just a bit of carbonation and think bubbly beige head. A fruity caramal aroma. Very sweet, which is countered a little further in the swallow by some carbonation and acidic sourness. Syrupy toffee flavours, with a strong woody alcoholic touch, akin to whiskey. Could have got a higher rating, but I just can’t get past that acidity.

A potent little number. A dark ruby colour - sweet and fruity in taste. Quite thin, but very palatable. Yes, I like it!

Rødlig øl. Duft af kryderier, varme og belgisk gær. Smag: Meget krydret og let bitter. Sødlig og varm som en kloster. Men ikke så kraftig. Sprittet eftersmag.

Drank from a bottle at home. It is quite rich and can be quite bitter at the end, but there are a lot of fruity tast that will fill the mouth. It is on par with leffe bruin.

Bottle at home. Sweet, fruity flavor. Cherries taste, also spicy and toffee-flavored. Tangy finish. Another excellent Leffe.

Bottle picked up at Sainsburys, Kidlington 14-10-06. This completed the end of my Leffe taste test with Loz’s parents, despite having had these beers hundreds of times before it was about time I rated them, only realised I hadn’t rated them when I went and rated the Leffe 9, so went out and bought the lot apart from the Tripel. After the Tripel this is my second favourite Leffe beer. Poured a reddy/brown colour, little bit of toffee on the nose, smooth and quite full flavoured beer, little bit spicey, also some toffee swilling around again, good tasty beer, still it’s not without its faults as there is a slight alcohol burn there.
