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."

Bottle: Pure gold color with a thin, creamy white head. Thick sheets of lacing. Aroma is bright with fruitiness, light florals, yeast, and some spices. Tastes maltier than expected; some grassey hops and yeast. Sweet and smooth with a little more spiciness. Got this as a gift for Xmas, didn’t really expect much of it... As it turns out, I could see this as a terrific summer beer and perhaps even a summer staple.

Pours light golden brown with a fairly thin white head. Aroma is fairly light and of light malts, spice and yeast. Taste is smooth, malty, slightly fruity and slightly spice. Pretty good.

Pours a translucent golden brew with a two finger frothy white head. The nose shows some sweetness, lots of yeast influence, spices, fruit, honey, earthy/funky Belgian feel. The flavor is warming, spicy, honey, mildly sweet, yeasty, Belgian/earthy. Palate is warm and crisply carbonated. Tasty.

Bottle: Poured a golden yellow with a thick white head. The aroma was yeasty, citrus, and clove. The flavor was a tad weak, with grass, coriander, and cloves present. Overall, not bad...but not great.

Bottle as shown. Pours a clear golden with a small white head that diminshes quickly to nothing. The aroma is a floral hop with clove. Decent lacing on the glass. The taste is a dry citrus with banana and clove and a dry finish. A decent belgian from InBev.

Pours a light brown liquid with medium head, delicate fruit and vanilla aroma, malt with banana yeasty flavors, some citrus and coriander as well. A bit alcoholic bitter sweet aftertaste.

Poured into shaker from bottle. Excellent experience. More pleasant, tasty, flavorful than the Duvel I had moments earlier. Golden color, white head, hints of malt, citrus. Not too bitter, Smooth, enjoyable, worth the effort and would buy again. Have to say I disagree with other recent reviews. Duvel was not even close in any category. Cheers!
