Beers similar to Mc Chouffe

Brown Ale·Belgium·8% ABV·One of 114 Brown Ales in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Mc Chouffe's caramel and sweet character. Malcolm, the Fairyland character with an accent and a kilt, picks this as his favourite, and Mc Chouffe tastes of aniseed, liquorice and toffee. It has a ruby sparkle, a smooth bitterness and a robust character that nods to its Scottish namesake. At 8% ABV and 20 IBU it is strong yet drinks as easily as La Chouffe, and it is brewed in the Belgian Ardennes.
