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."

Pours clear with beautifully golden colour. Sweet malty aroma with hops and slightly tongue-tingling bitterness. Very nice mouthfeel, not too carbonated, not too bitter. Buttery aftertaste with floral notes.

(Bottle). Pleasant enough beer, but not necessarily meriting a second purchase. Sweet doughy aroma, very large creamy head with good staying power. Clear amber color. Flavor is moderately light and sweet, with a light bitter finish. Something vaguely medicinal with banana notes.

(Bottled) Golden. Clear. Medium-sized white head. Fruity nose. Medium palate with some carbonation. Taste is fruity, sweet and yeasty. Light bitterness in aftertaste.

On tap with happy hour special! Pours dark copperish color with good lacing. Yeasty aroma. Very smooth beer with backbone, medium-heavy carbonation and a nice savory aftertaste.

This is a pretty tasty Belgian blond. The flavor and aroma are light, yet yeasty, almost banana/aplle like notes can be detected. The mouthfeel is a little on the syrupy side for my taste, but if it is served well chilled, this can be avoided. This is a great beach brew, and I’ve found it does better with a few days of cold storage before being drunk.
