Reibert Arbring2010-03-07 | Leffe BlondeGolden Ale / Blond Ale | 6.6%3.68 |
Beer produced by Abbaye de Leffe S.A., BE Appearance: This beer is a clear amber brew, a thick off-white head leaving quite some lacing. (4) Aroma: The smell is sweet caramel, candid sugar, bitter oranges and sour lemons and curdled milk. Some dried grass as well. (4) Taste: The taste is mostly sweet, toffee and syrup, some orange sourness, bitter aromas - like fruit seeds. (3.5) Palate: Rather good carbonation, a smooth feeling. (4) Overall: The sweetness puts this beer out of the thirst-quenching domain, better to go with spiced food or as an appetizer. (3.5) bottle |
Reibert Arbring2010-03-06 | Leffe BruneBelgian Brown Ale | 6.5%3.45 |
Beer produced by Abbaye de Leffe S.A., BE Appearance: A rather dark brown beer with a hint of orange, the head is beige, rich, firm and leaving lots of lacing. (4) Aroma: The smell is complex, lots of sweet malty tones, spices (cardamom, cumin), sourness (lemon, sour milk), grass and hay. (4.5) Taste: Mostly sweet tones, caramel, some licorice, a bit salt caviar, and a bitter tang at the end. (3) Palate: Mildly carbonated, rather smooth and a dry finish. (3) Overall: This is a hard to judge beer, it looks and smells very nice, but the taste is a bit to sweet for me. (3.5) bottle |
