The Mc Chouffe is an unfiltered dark beer (such as scotch).
Full of character, Mc CHOUFFE delights lovers of dark beer all over the world. Its distinctive flavour, its dark ruby colour and its fine creamy head make it a unique beer. Mc CHOUFFE is also characterised by its spicy aniseed and liquorice flavours, superbly complemented by full-bodied caramel notes. Despite its robustness, Mc CHOUFFE is surprisingly smooth. It even reveals delicious fruity notes, especially pear, as well as a very slight hint of bitterness at the end of the palate. With its 8% alcohol content, like LA CHOUFFE, Mc CHOUFFE is appreciated with the same lightness as its big blond sister.

Bottle at Taps, Leicester. Dark brown with the slightest amount of hazy light getting through. A nice big tan head. Yeast, candy sugar, horehound, some chocolate. Ambrosially sweet taste, with lip-smacking sugary yeast. Alcohol burn on the way down. Intense carbonation, which works on this beer. Heavenly.

Nog eentje van een tijdje geleden dat blijkbaar niet is doorgekomen. Degelijk bruin bier. Zoet, karamel. Niet erg speciaal

330ml bottle, from a Belgian supermarket, for next to nowt. Poured in the sediment so it’s hazy, reddy brown. Blotchy, lasting, beige head. Nose is yeasty, fruity, granary bread crust, toffee malts. Taste is soft, buttery sweet. Some dried vine fruit bitterness. Mouthfillingly rich. Lots of depth. Foamy carbonation. Soft, bitter fruit finish. Lip sticking sweetness all the way through. Very nice.

Rien que du bon... Bananes, dates, caramel, grains grillés, et j’en passe. Un classique en soi. La mousse tient bien, l’alcool se veut très discret et l’équilibre est irréprochable. Seul bémol, pas de date d’embouteillage, seulement une "best before date".
