Leffe Brune
Leffe Brune smells roasted and fruity, then turns soft and creamy, with a light, sweet, caramelised taste and just a discreet touch of bitterness. Darkly roasted malt gives this 6.5% abbey beer its deep dark brown colour and full, slightly sweet flavour. In 1952 Father Abbot Nys and brewer Albert Lootvoet decided to revive the abbey's brewing tradition, and a wide range of Leffe beers grew from it.
