The authentic Belgian abbey beer: Leffe Vieille Cuvee has a creamy and very aromatic taste.

[1] Review by Phil B from Gatineau, Canada who has tried this beer once. (10/4/2007 10:45:38 AM)
"Bottle: Poured a deep burgundy and brown color ale with a great big foamy head with some good retention and some lacing. Aroma of candi sugar with some nice Belgian malt. Taste was to be honest a little bit disappointing with a watery body and a unrefined sugar taste that didn’t do much for me. The body is watery with some great carbonation and a nice creamy texture. I’m not the biggest fan of this brewery but I have to admit that this beer featured some great characteristics but lack some cohesion and a malt profile to hold the whole thing together."

[2] Review by vanderla from Sydney, Australia who has tried this beer a couple times. (8/31/2006 6:05:21 AM)
"Burnt orange, brown. Beige head.
Nose first of fresh hops, then some complex malts. Even an earthy hint of mushroom or somesuch....
Flavour is spicy. Some yeasty phenolics, fruity candy hints. Lolly shop.
Foamy mouthfeel, with good malt body that balances the bitterness that comes out.
I reviewed this in parallel with the Radieuse..... this is not as harsh, and more approachable."

"Bottle. Dark amber coloured, with large, creamy off-white head. Aroma is yeasty, dark fruits and spicey. Interesting and nice taste; full bodied, malty, and fruity with a slight bitter aftertaste. Excellent."

[4] Review by Sigmund from Hafrsfjord, Norway who has tried this beer once. (8/10/2004 5:15:41 PM)
"(33 cl bottle, bought in Denmark). Deep golden brown colour, no haziness, large head. Aroma is not very strong, but pleasant - yeasty and fruity (canned plums), some spices and herbs too. Full bodied sweet flavour, still quite smooth. Brown candy sugar, Christmas fruit cake spices and herbs prevail. Some alcoholic warmth, but not dominant. A great sipping beer!
