Brune (Leffe)

This brown abbey ale was a wonderful offering at the Ciudad Condal Cerveceria on the north end of Las Ramblas. I have had other Leffe ales, but have yet to write about one.

General Thoughts
Look and Smell: It was brown with a light bubbly head. I could smell brown sugar (caramel) and malt.

Taste: The malt flavor was very rich. I could taste the Belgian sugars cleanly through the brew, but it wasn't saccharine.

From the Leffe site:
Leffe Brown is an authentic abbey beer, brewed according to the traditional recipe of the Abbey of Leffe. Leffe Brown has a delicate taste of vanilla and clove, and the full aroma of toffee and caramel. It thanks its deep dark brown color to darkly roasted malt.
