What our customers like

About This Beer
La Chouffe Blonde 5L Keg from Brasserie d’Achouffe is one of Belgium’s most beloved exports and a flagship example of the Belgian Strong Golden Ale style. Brewed in the Ardennes since the early 1980s, this distinctive ale balances strength, subtle sweetness, and fruity spice in every pour. The 5L mini keg format is ideal for get-togethers, home bars, or simply enjoying high-quality craft beer at home. As a bold, top-fermented ale, it stands out for its layered complexity, natural carbonation, and refermentation in the keg.

Tasting Notes:

  • Appearance: Hazy deep golden with a creamy white head and consistent lacing.

  • Aroma: Bright and fruity with notes of citrus peel, banana, clove, and floral esters.

  • Flavour: A harmonious blend of candied orange, sweet malt, coriander spice, and a gentle noble hop bitterness.

  • Mouthfeel: Smooth, medium-bodied with lively carbonation and a warming, slightly dry finish.

About the Brewery
Brasserie d’Achouffe, based in Achouffe in the Ardennes region, began as a small hobby project and has since become a cornerstone of Belgian craft brewing. Famous for its gnome branding and whimsical personality, the brewery remains deeply rooted in Belgian tradition while appealing to a global audience. Their unfiltered, bottle- and keg-conditioned beers are enjoyed across continents, yet retain the authenticity and charm of small-batch production.

As a prime example of Belgian brewing craftsmanship, La Chouffe stands shoulder-to-shoulder with Trappist ales and other strong golden styles in both taste and prestige. For fans of this beer style, we recommend browsing our Belgian Beer collection for similar classics.

Food Pairings
La Chouffe Blonde is highly versatile with food. Its spicy yeast character and slight sweetness make it an excellent match for:

  • Rich cheeses like Brie, Camembert or Comté

  • Roast chicken, turkey or glazed ham

  • Creamy mushroom pasta or risotto

  • Apple tarts or almond pastries for a sweet-savoury pairing
