Leffe Blonde Reviews

Leffe is one of my favourite Belgian beers . I first sampled this when I was 19, and at the time it was still a relatively obscure beer over here- available only at a few bars in the city centre , poured from a bottle into a chalice shaped glass . It's really grown in popularity now it seems - most supermarkets sell Leffe, and all good ...  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, ...  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 ...  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 ...  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 ...  Read the complete review

Leffe is a Belgian beer that like so many of the best things in life was originally made by monks. God bless those little chaps for making Leffe beers, whilst Leffe Blonde is by no means the best Belgian beer it was one of the first to make the British shores but it's modern day availability has come at a cost. Far from it's abbey heritage, ...  Read the complete review

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 ...  Read the complete review

The Beer Festival Weekend - Advantages: Instant annebriation - Disadvantages: Tastes like sand, Hurts like glass

Ok I’ll come straight out with it; Leffe Blond is one of my favourite beers. As you may have probably guessed it’s a Belgian abbey beer, which means monks originally created it (I doubt that is still the case). Despite its strength it is quite a light beer and that is reflected in its name and beautiful rich amber colour. I think ...  Read the complete review
