Sep 24, 2002 Beautifull white, lasting head, dark brown coloured. Fruity, sweet smell.
Taste is quite unbelievable; I mean I never tasted a beer like this before. Roasted, malty, hop biterness with some herbs. Nice smooth, dry aftertaste.

Apr 13, 2008 Updated: May 12, 2008In short: A boring sugary Belgian ale with no character.
How: Bottle, 330ml, about 3 to 4 months old.
The look: Clear amber body with a small beige head.
In long: Basic sweet malts, medium-high sweetness level, some brown sugar and some candy sugar, some redeeming woody notes both in the malts and hops profile, light caramel, expansive carbonation, short finish. Leffe Radiant?!? I don’t remember anything being so radiant since the foggy cloudy London weather.

Oct 7, 2003 Rich candied malt aroma, some almond notes too. Clear ruby, pretty beige head. Bitter flavour, woody, nutty as well. Mellow, well balanced, warming. A fine Belgian Strong!

Dec 18, 2007 From bottle at Brussels Airport. Clear copper with a medium off-white head. Freash bready malt aroma. Rather sweet with bitternessonly kicking in to a modest extent. Modest rye bread flavours. Not the sexiest beer around, but one of the better Leffes.

Dec 29, 2005 This is not my idea of a good Belgian beer. Waaaayyy to sweet! Cherry syrup in the aroma and on the palate. The alcohol is well hidden, but only because it is buried under cough-syrup sticky sweetness.

May 27, 2007 Updated: May 28, 2007Bottled, Inspire, Coventry. Spritzy red pour blanketed with Gilette. Sweet, cakily malty nose. Opens with a lick of copper penny but develops some cardboard and alcohol. Kind of a turbocharged Belgian John Smith’s. Horribly thin, tinny and papery on top a Tripel Karmeliet. lightweight and characterless for the ABV. But have drank it before and enjoyed it. On this showing, very disappointing.

Oct 16, 2005 33 cl bottle. No yeast in bottom. Dark amber colour with a rocky white head. Nice complex aroma of wheat and dried fruit. Great complex and spicy flavour. The alcohol is well hidden. Definately the best Leffe.
