Leffe Radieuse

Brewed by InBev Belgium
Style: Belgian Strong Ale
Leuven, Belgium

Bottled. Dark red-amber with coffee froth head. Spicy, winter fruit aroma albeit fairly subtle, restrained and alluring rather than overpowering. Malty, warm, soothing fruit, enjoyable but I’ve had better.

Bottle. 8,2% Pours brown with a beige/brown head. Sweetish and yeasty aroma. Flavour is sweetish and fruity with notes of plums and yeast. Finish is bitter and dryish, but feels a bit thin. Slight notes of apple. 22-02-06.

Deep ruby brown. Small beige head. Spicy dark fruit nose. Apple, plum, light to medium bodied, fairly sweet, finishing with a bit ofbtter acidity, yeast, hops. Spicy and fruiy, not a bad brew, although by no means a favorite.

Aaah... I’ve waited for this bottle a couple of years now. It’s old, but not yet bb. The aroma promises well, with fruitful cherry-notes and some oakyness. This is dark brown, with a small white head. I’m drinking this from a real La Trappe (champagne-shaped) glass, and the foam looks intriguing, like a swamp actually. The first sip is good with its fizzyness. The alcohol warms in a good way. More woody flavours and less fruit. Long, full finish. My kind o’ play thingie.

Amber coloured with a big head. The aroma is fruity with some hop and malt. The alcohol is obvious. Bitter, alcohol filled aftertaste.

Small light brown head and dark red-brown body. Nice aroma; apples, raisins, rum, little spice. Smooth and soft palate. Tastes of less than the aroma makes you anticipate. Little spicy-bitter finish.

bottled brussels: pours brown amber with tan bubbly head. more effervesence then others in this class. nose very sweet some alcohol notes. mouth feels bubbly and sweet malt toffee. the other leffes ive had were much more enjoyable. stick with what you know dammit.
