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."

A clear yellow/golden colored beer, with a big white foamed head. It disappears slowly. The aroma is hoppy, with fruity sweets, floral and mild bitterness. The taste of sweet fruits like orange. A nice bitterness of hop. In the aftertaste there is still the fruitnes.

[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.

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!

3.1/5 Bottle. Pours golden yellow with a white head. Aroma of bread, honey, hay and cereals. Tiny bit of citrus aroma. Ok beer.

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.
