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."

Fruity nose (ripe macintosh and pear) with thick lasting bubbly white head of two fingers width and dark amber effervescent body. Sweet, complex taste of harvest fruit, wheat, malt and barley. Rich, velvety feel in the mouth with a sweet non-threatening aftertaste. Not a favorite, but definitely worthy in style and craftsmenship.

Comes out of the tap a nice clear golden color, with a decent head. Aroma is strong and malty and has a decided lemony overtone. Flavor is malty and strongly of citrus, mainly lemon and nicely tart. Texture is smooth, and finish is refreshing and satisfying.

Bottle from Bottlescrew Bills, Calgary, AB. An aroma of fruity malts and strong yeast flavour. Taste is unbelievable and complex. Overall, another great Belgian Ale from a reputable brewery. Will drink again.

Bottle at MU SteakHouse. Served in the Leffe glass. Pretty strong typical Belgium aroma. A strong yeast presents and fruitiness. Creamy beer, complex with citrus, malts and a long finish. Great Beer!

Bottle pours a clear, golden, honey color with a thin head. A constant stream of carbonation rises from the bottom of the glass to the surface forming a concentrated head in the center with a thin ring around the outside. Good lacing along the side of the glass. Nice fruity, yeast aroma. Sweet spiced flavor that includes cloves, bananas, malt and some citrus. Active carbonation on the tongue and a slightly dry finish. Very nice overall.

I bought this on suggestion of the beer guy at my local shop, and becuse the price was right. Well, upon first sip, it’s pretty good! It pours a medium amber, with a dissapearing head. The aroma is not subtle, but it’s not too strong, and its kind of fruity. It tastes like a traditional Belgian ale, with lots of citrus, and fuzzyness. I would definitly buy this again. Cheers!
