Guide Review - Tasting Notes and Review of Leffe Blonde

Leffe Blonde has a clear, golden body with a thick, dense and rocky head. It's nose is fully of bananas and sweet spice. The mouthfeel is silky and the beer sweet. It tastes much as it smells - like liquid banana bread and a nice snap at the back. A lingering sweetness becomes almost cloying.
