Floreffe Brune is a Belgian strong ale from Brasserie Lefebvre in northern Wallonia, Belgium. The most traditional of Brasserie Lefebvre’s range of Belgian abbey-style ales, Floreffe Brune is an aged brown ale, undergoing secondary fermentation in the bottle to add depth and complexity to the beer.
Popping the flip-top lid on this attractively packaged bottle, Floreffe Brune pours a deep brown, almost black colour. Aromas of liquorice, roasted malts and grape rise from the beer. The first sip reveals roasted coffee, warming alcoholic mouthfeel and a slightly tangy finish. Floreffe Brune can be drunk straight away or aged in the bottle to allow the beer to develop woody, Madeira wine notes.

David Winter –
Aniseed, almost cherry note, roasted malt, acidic. Notably pungent, but without sourness. A very distinct and strong profile, and a good winter warmer.
