Another good offering from Leffe: Leffe Blonde
Earlier this month I reviewed Leffe Brune which I liked, **** stars. This time I tried a bottle of Leffe Blonde, which is a Belgian pale ale with an abv of 6.6%.
Appearance- Light golden amber color with lots of tiny bubbles. Big, creamy, white head which slightly clings to the side of the glass.
Smell- Yeasty, grainy, honey, fruity, some hops and floral/grassy notes.
Taste- Sweet Honey/nectar, malt, some hops, grassy and a pleasant toffee sweetness.
Mouth- Smooth with lively carbonation.
Drinkability- I'd have another.
Bottom line:
This beer is sweet, creamy and easy to drink.
*** 1/2 (out of 5 *)
