The gnomes of Fairyland are particularly fond of this golden beer. LA CHOUFFE, with its slight hoppy taste, combining notes of fresh coriander and fruity tones, is the drink which gives them their zest for life. At least, that's what these imps say when they are thirsty. Their secret used to be jealously guarded from one generation to the next until the day they shared the recipe with humans to seal their friendship. Of all the legends from the wonderful region of the Belgian Ardennes, the tale of LA CHOUFFE is the one which most merits re-telling.

Clear golden with a tall white head. Sweet fruits, honey, coriander, spice. Medium bodied. It’s a totally fine beer while also nothing outstanding.

Bottle at home. Probably a mistake but it seemed like a good idea at the time. Good pour with a huge nose of yeast. And a huge taste of it too! Ok.

Eén van mijn favoriete bieren. Donker goudgeel bier met een mooie schuimkraag. Smaak is krachtig, licht bitter hoppig en zoet met iets van banaan en wat koriander.

Bottle from Systembolaget Sweden.
Big, long lasting fluffy white head.
Opaque golden color.
Big phenolic and light fruity aroma.
The taste is also phenolic with nice malty sweetness too balance the alcohol.
