Pours darkish amber with a light head. Aroma is malts, flavor is pretty sweet malts. Almost too sweet for my liking. A quality beer nevertheless.

A sweet blond, with flavors of honey, fruit and a touch of spices. This may be produced by InBev, but I still enjoy it.

Le liquide a une couleur dorée. Une mousse blanche se dépose pour un court moment. Bon nez malté avec des épices, du miel et une touche fruitée. En bouche, les céréales maltées sont douces avec des notes florales et de la levure. Le liquide a une densité moyenne et sa texture est crémeuse. On note aussi beaucoup de bulles. La finale est douce et courte et ne développe pratiquement pas d’amertume.

Strong malty aroma and strong alcoholic taste, not the best belgian ale, but a good starting reference point

In the tulip, this blond has a brilliant light gold body with a medium one-inch head with some persistence. The aroma of clove and bananas is pungent over a malty sweetness. May have a very light spicy hop aroma. The flavor is generally sweet--bread and wheat--with medium hop bitterness that’s decently spicy throughout. Despite that, it’s still fairly sweet. Nothing special on the flavor. Mouthfeel is soft, fairly lightweight. A good beer.
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
Pours blonde with a fairly big foamy white head. Nose is a blend of lightly sweet fruit, abbey yeast, and spices. Flavor is extremely bready and oaty with a lot less sweet malt and hops than you’d expect from an "abbey" (the bottle claims that it is) belgian ale. Finish is also grain dominated. An ok beer but a lot closer to a wheat ale than any belgian "abbey" should ever be.

Draft at Tigin, served in a really nice Leffe glass. I should get one of those. Pours a clear, rich gold color with a small eggshell white head and some visible carbonation. Notes of clove, Belgian yeast, honey, straw, banana, coriander, sweet malts, and some hops. Medium-bodied, with mild carbonation and some light stickyness in the palate. Goes down really smooth and easily, and was a great sipper during the Netherlands-Brazil game. I was supporting the Dutch but didn’t want a Heineken or Amstel Light.
