Commercial Description:
This brown ale has a marked ruby brown colour with a generous and lasting head. It has a distinctive aroma reflecting the wide range of ingredients used in its production. The fruitiness resulting from its fermentation blends harmoniously with a dominant liquorice and caramel flavour. The body is decidedly malty. The bitterness is the result of a complex alchemy between the fine hops and special malts used. These give St Feuillien Brune a typical dark chocolate appearance.

Pours a muddy brown with sediment and carbonation floating about. Great aroma that is nutty, caramel and fruit like. Has a liquorice and roasted flavor. A hint of molasses. A fine Abbey Dubbel.

<b>In short: </b>By-the-book but superior fruity Belgian amber ale. Good stuff
<b>How: </b>Bottle 750ml, about 1 year old
<b>The look: </b>Cloudy redish-brown body topped by a medium beige head that quickly recedes to a ring of foam
<b>In long: </b>Nose of earthy hops, wood and such along with the usual Belgian amber ale fruity esters. Taste is surprisingly nutty with lots of fresh and dried fruits. Finish is fruity with a hefty amount of woody hops. I really liked the overall nutty and woody feeling of the beer. Nothing new for the style but this is yet another way above average beer from St-Feuillein. These guys know how to brew beer. Which is a good thing since they are a brewery.

Bottled. A cloudy dark red/brown beer with a big, quick disappearing beige head. The aroma has a good maltiness and notes of caramel, fruits, spices and a light herbal touch fro the hops. The flavour is overall well balanced, not overly sweet and with a moderate acidity. Again some caramel and the spices are well present. Medium body, lively carbonation, long fiinish with almost medium bitterness. The alcohol is well hidden. Surely a good beer.
