Having just tried this recently, I realised I had to review it. I'd had it hugely recommended and the shop down the road sells it (£1.39 a bottle, bit extortionate tbh), but with the eager sales man (the same guy who knows I'll go in there several times a week) advising me that it was "very good" (same thing he said about Kingfisher the week before), I should have realised he was wanting rid of it. Now before I get into my third rant in almost as many reviews, it's not that Leffle blonde is terrible, far from it, but it's no a world beater like Cobra, Kronnenbourg or Kopperberg. The beer is a light beer (though a strong light beer, unlike ... Read the complete review

This ale is becoming increasingly popular here in the UK. This is a good thing as this is a very tasty beer. First the facts, this is an ale - not a lager - it is top fermented. Secondly, don't pronounce it leff-ay. The beer is Belgian and the Walloons there (french speakers) would call it 'leff' (no accent) and the Flemish speakers pronounce the letter e at the end of words like this: 'leff-uh'. Take your pick - you'll probably have to point it out anyway. Finally this is an abbey beer. This is a cynical commercial response to the famous Trappist beers. These are a range of ales brewed by monks - what a life. Due to the popularity of ... Read the complete review

I am a big fan of White Lager, and Belgian Lager, so Belgian White Lager? Hurrah! Over the past couple of years, Leffe has seemingly crept in to mainstream pubs across the UK, and Weatherspoons definitely seem to like selling it. Of course, I feel a slight pang of annoyance, as the "inside club" of those who've been to Belgium and tasted the real deal now have countless people asking if I've tried it yet! White Lager isn't for everyone. It tends to be much sweeter than your usual pint, and it is stronger than the usual lineup available. But if you treat your taste buds to one or two of these on a night out, I doubt you'll regret the ... Read the complete review

The more i drink this, the more i wish i was a monk, as the monks invented this and it is easily one of my favourite bottled beers. The bottle is a very nice design, it looks like a well established beer and is one that tempts you to try it, which always helps to attract new customers. At 6.6% this is a rather strong beer, however it doesnt give you the hangover you think you might get once you have devoured a load of bottles the night. Its a rather smooth tasting beer, and feels great on the tongue and really tantalises the taste buds. It doesnt bloat you either so you can have quite a few bottles without having to move onto spirits or something ... Read the complete review

Leffe Blonde is marketed as being authentic Belgian abbey beer. At the wine shop nearest to me, it sells for around £2 a bottle, which is for the 330ml size. The price can vary greatly - when I was staying in a hotel in Belgium, I asked for two pints of Leffe, and was stunned when the bill came to around 16 Euros - not a bar I went to again... The beer itself is fairly light in colour, and is has a high alcoholic content at 6.6% volume. The taste is quite unusual, and in my opinion, not entirely pleasant. It's certainly not a beer which you could say is refreshing, although I do find it tastes better cold. The aftertaste is slightly bitter, but ... Read the complete review
