Leffe Blonde

Brewed by InBev Belgium
Style: Belgian Ale
Leuven, Belgium

Serve in Trappist glass, Tulip, Tumbler

UPDATED: MAY 23, 2010 Bottle. Pours a beautiful clear golden beer, medium white head. High carbonation. Fruity smell. Taste is sweet, honey, fruity. Nice full mouthfeel. Vanilla-aftertaste.

Pours light amber/yellow with a small head. Aroma has caramel, citrus, elder flower, a small hoppiness and is slightly sweet. The taste is malt dominated, quite "grainy", some caramel and some bitter notes. High carbonation short after taste, medium body.

Leffe Blond was one of the first Belgian beers I had. It’s very accessible; light in color, fresh on the palate and with a sweet, light "Leffe-style" candy sugar finish - I haven’t tasted any beer yet which carries that special kind of sweetness. These days, I prefer a bit more richness in taste even for a blond ale, but Leffe Blond still does the trick.

Slight malty aroma, not very strong. Moderately sized vanilla head. Light gold in appearance. Invokes a banana flavor when drunk, slight bitterness from the hops mixed in, very refreshing. Moderately carbonated, which suits this beer well. Would drink again.

Bottle. Pours copper with frothy white head.  Aroma of apples and pears.  Taste of Belgian yeast.  Lively carbonation.  Medium body.  Sweet flavor.  Decent.  

Tap to a chalice. Nice fluffy white head that laces well. Light honey color. I get bready malt and some grass. Nice Belgian ale taste that has a very nice finish. I’d like more, but couldn’t. I will go back to the well.

Translucent gold in color with fluffy, white head. There’s not a lot of complexity to the nose or flavor, but it is an enjoyable blond ale. Aroma of yeast with fruity citrus notes that lean toward apricot. The flavor is sweet with a light hint of clove. Pleasant mouthfeel and moderate finish

On tap at The Taphouse, pours a hazy golden. Aroma and flavour of wheat, citrus and yeast. Solid Belgian.
