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."

Westmeister (463) - Atlanta, Georgia, USA - DEC 29, 2011
750 ml @ $3.99 - pours a clear amber/yellow with sticky, bubbly white head. Head and lace impressive. Smell is yeast, almost white wine like fruitiness, Some spice and citrus zest. Very clean and bright aroma. Taste is equally bright and fresh with spice, yeast, doughy bread, light crisp malts and some sweetness with a citrus bite. For the price or not this is quite nice.

330ml bottle from Premier Gourmet in Buffalo. Pours clear yellow amber with lasting foamy white head, and nice lace.  Aroma is malty sweet with noticeable yeasty bread and spices. Flavor is dominated by the bready yeast and sweet dried fruit. Cloves and fruit linger. Nice Belgian.

TheCametron (468) - SCOTLAND - DEC 26, 2011
Bottle. Golden with white head. Belgian yeast aroma. Tastes pretty nice. A serviceable abbey beer particularly for how mass produced it is.

Hammy78 (441) - Dundas, Ontario, CANADA - DEC 23, 2011
6 pack given to me by a friend. Pours a golden yellow colour, with a pillowy white head and lacing like spider webs left behind in an abandoned house. Aroma is Belgian yeast, some fruit like banana. Classic.

ThreeCats (77) - ISRAEL - DEC 23, 2011
Pours gold with huge head. Smells of malt and toffee with grassy notes and some fruit. Malty and slightly bitter at first taste, with bitterness developing on tongue as palate progresses. Mouthfeel a bit thin.

adnielsen (3102) - Denver, Colorado, USA - DEC 18, 2011
Bottle @ home. Clear, golden orange appearance with a sizable white head. Tangerine citrusy, Belgian yeasty, somewhat spicy, a touch bready aroma. Fairly spicy, Belgian yeasty, somewhat peppery, citrusy flavor with some light banana and clove notes. Somewhat spicy finish. Pretty solid, easy to drink beer.
