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."

I really hate when beers have that metallic finish; it really ruins the enjoyment of it. Leffe starts well with fizzy citrus flavous and a touch of grass to it but then it decends into an overwhelming metallic finish that lingers. Unpleasant.

Fair to midland overall. The aroma was very sweet and fruity as was the inital flavor. After the fruitiness you get a taste of the malts but the sweetness was almost overwhelming. Nice cloudy golden color. I definitely picked up some spicy orangeness about it.

Uma boa cerveja. Ótima para o dia a dia (se esse for sempre muito bom). Espuma de boa formação, ambar, bonita. Coloração caramelo. Cheiro frutado, suavemente adocicado. Uma cerveja média na graduação. Sabor frutado, cítrico, com retrogosto amargo. Tons agradáveis de caramelo.

This was my first belgian beer ever, back in 91 at a bistro in Paris, I had never had anything quite like it(since then I have).It has grown to be a favorite of mine, despite the new owners. This is a great beer for your friends who are a bit squemish about beer, but are adventurous enough to try it. Most become hooked and are soon ready to take on different beers that have more to offer. It pours golden and slightly cloudy, with a thin head. It has a fruity smell, with a fruity banana and citrus taste. It is very drinkable, and is a great session beer.

I sampled this on tap at Culture Bière, Champs Elisées, Paris. Leffe is a nice Belgian Ale. The color is a golden yellow with a good head. Te aroma is light while the taste is very filling and easy to drink. I may order this again. Round 2: On tap at Hop Leaf in Chicago. I drank this during a dinner with Graham, Tara and John during my first vacation. Clear golden yellow color with in initial but quickly dissapearing head and a slight bote noteable flavor.
