Commercial Description:
Filtered.
Uses Vieux Temps yeast which gives the clove-like flavour.
"Leffe Blond is a pale abbey beer, with a full, sunny, golden colour. It has a smooth and full bodied taste and a rich creamy head. Like all the Leffe beers, it is a ’connoisseur’ beer that is easy to drink."

Clear blonden gold coloured beer white average white head. Nice carbonation. Malty sweet aroma. Full bit creamy palate. Finish is bitter and little dry. Good one.

Found this one bottled at Top Shelf in South Elgin, Illinois. Nice spicy and citrusy aroma. The flavor is typical of the style, with strawberry, kiwi, clove and baked bread all in there. Nice and complex finish, and strong. Delicious.

On tap at Mahars. Pours a creamy yellow with a thick head. Aroma is tangy metallic. Flavor is very sweet and sour with an acidic bite, not overly strong but close.

Pours a clear gold color with 2 fingers of white foamy head. Aroma of spices, yeast and malt. Flavor of banana, yeast, malt trace amounts of spices and fruit. Nice brew.

A good solid beer. Looks amazing in the glass. Gorgeous amber color with the perfect amount of head. Taste is great but nothing mind-blowing.

pours a light, clear orange witih a fair amount of stark-white, light head. Spice and orange peel in the odor. A little of caramel and sweet fruit in the taste, with a bit of a hop bitterness in the aftertaste. It’s a pretty good beer, but its not my favorite type of Belgium beer.

Wonderful beer. Will buy again. A lot more flavor than Hoegaarden. This is a sweet ale. I usually prefer dark beers,but this one hits the spot.

I hate to say this, but I prefer Hoegaarden. Maybe the cost difference accounts for the bias, if there is any. Still a great beer, worth buying and drinking again.
