7.6/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 7 Flavor 8 Texture 8 Overall 8.5
Orange, brown body with some carbonation along with a slightly off-white head that leaves a nice, thick lacing. Kind of appleish aroma along with some spices... I really got a different aroma from this than most people got here apparently. Hella complex taste that changes completely from start to finish. It is a little bitter. Has a rather dry finish. Pretty light bodied but full-flavoured. Probably my favorite belgian ale.

27/10 0.33 l bottle at Hopdevil. Since I first tried Leffe blond, I fell in love with Belgian ales generally so came with big expectations to this reputable one as well! Its beautiful bottle poured murky golden to amber body with quite big ivory creamy head that went away at medium pace. Nice fruity aroma of banana with citrus hops... typical Belgian ale things. Flavor is quite light and watery, but with lot of subtle flavors in there, starting from apples, peaches to some dark fruits. Finish is short, very simple and although rounding this nice beer, really leaves you disappointed. I had much better Belgian ales for sure.It was really fresh, maybe allowing it to re-ferment in bottle for more time would be a viable option here.

Bottle as shown. Pours a cloudy orange copper color with a large frothy off white head. The aroma is a sweet fruit and floral notes. Very good lacing on this one. The taste is very dry with sweet hops, a very well done belgian ale.

Bottle from early 2006. Poured a deep dark cloudy amber color, huge white head when poured without care. Sweet aroma, and very smooth flavor. This beer was probably one of the most smooth beers I have ever had. Spice, caramel, with orange and a touch of yeast.

11.2 oz Bottle Pours out a clear bubble amber topped with a off white head. Great aroma of spice and a little hop. More spice on the tast. I was looking for a little better Belgain.

Bottle: Pours a murky copper brown with a massive, frothy white head. Nose is mild of spice and fruitiness, hints of citrus. Simple taste of fruit, spice, and hops. Dry, lingering finish yet it is very smooth and has a wonderful sensation on the palate. I had higher expectations for flavor complexities, but this is still good.

Orange-golden colour, big foamy head. Lots of citrus in the aroma. Flavours of citrus as well, a bit of orange and some spices. Balanced beer, long aftertaste.

Bottled November 2005. Marmalade coloured with a huge, billowing white head. Aroma of bitter oranges, herby hops with a whiff of brett. Flavour started of citrus hops before a slightly acidic finish. Highly distinctive and really enjoyable.

bottle, abou 1,5 years old. Impressive head, very long-lasting, looks like a rock formation, never seen such a beautiful head before. Hoppy nose. Fruity and hoppy flavours, very dry palate, very hoppy indeed. Hints of fruit (orange peel?). Only very slightly malty. Very dry and hoppy finish with long aftertaste.
