bottle: Amazing beer which always reminds me of xmas! Great example of Belgian Ale. Also a great example of a stronger beer (6.5%) that isn’t overwhelmed by alcohol taste (e.g. Sinha Stout). Pours sunny yellow with nice puffy white head. Tastes exactly like it smells: sweet yet acidic, fruity & yeasty. You can really taste fruit in here llike appricot or bananas, hard to tell. Here is a beer which has big, bold flavours but still is smooth (unlike Mill Street’s Coffe Porter). I always get the sense that if this beer had 1 more bit of flavour it would all fall to pieces & go to hell, but this hangs together.

Dec 2, 2008 [330 ml bottle] Kind of hard to rate since I have been drinking Leffe for so many years. It tastes Leffe! Spices and herbs in the aroma and flavor.

Nov 29, 2008 a bit too sweet for me i find it slick and syrup like. chalky and with typical spiciness that seems a bit washed out. a bit of banana and apple actually it does go nice on an appropriate sunny spring day where the moderate body and playful carbonation lends some soul. clearly out of sorts with myself on this one....this is a good beer for a knowledgeable beer enthusiast who knows what he or she wants!

Bottle. Pours golden yellow with a white head. Aroma of bread, honey, hay and cereals. Tiny bit of citrus aroma.
Ok beer.

Nov 27, 2008 Delicate banana yeast nose, sweet, crystal clear filtered golden color with beautiful lace, spritzy mouthfeel, smooth malts, bright fruit, sweet and heading towards dry on the finish, very tastey, excellent belgian blonde, this was excellent research for the belgian blonde I’ll brew on saturday...

Nov 27, 2008 Slight citrus aroma with little alcoholic smell. Big loose white head with extreme lacing. Appearance throws me off. Taste very difficult for me to describe. Its just tastes like "beer" with a little bite to it. Easy to drink.
