I am La Chouffe — brewed with sunshine, laughter, and a little gnome magic.
Born from the enchanted pages of a gnome’s spellbook and first brought to life in 1982, I was the original creation of the Achouffe Brewery — and I’ve been spreading joy ever since. I shine with a hazy golden glow and a fluffy white head, brewed with coriander, citrusy hops, and pure mischief. I’m light-hearted yet full of flavour, like a fresh breeze on a sun-dappled hike through the Ardennes.
Take a sip and let your taste buds twirl: spicy coriander, zesty orange peel, and floral hops waltz together in perfect balance. I finish crisp and lively, with a whisper of peppery warmth that invites another round. I’m the beer you reach for after a long walk, by a crackling fire, or in the company of good friends and better stories.
So go on — raise your glass with a wink and a grin. I’m La Chouffe, and I’m here to remind you that life tastes better when you don’t take it too seriously.

What started as a hobby developed into an international success with countless highly coveted awards coming year after year, in recognition of their unique flavour.
