Hello Steemers and all beer lovers!

I was so excited when I bought this Leffe, it's not common to find it in a shop near me. This was supposed to be a post for #beersaturday but things got carried out of the way a little bit. The plan was to drink one and write a review of this magnificent golden liquid, but you know how it goes, a couple of friends showed up and next thing you know you have been drinking till morning. Great.

Lets go back to the reason why we are here - Leffe blond and see where the story takes us.

"In the fifties, an extraordinary meeting took place that all beer enthusiasts should raise their glass of Leffe to. 
 The abbey’s Father Abbot Nys became acquainted with Albert Lootvoet, a master brewer.
 Passionate about the future of the brewery, Father Nys was upset to have to witness how, since the unpleasant stay of the French revolutionaries, the brewery had slowly fallen into decline and had eventually had to close its doors in 1809. Such a magnificent place could not be forgotten, he believed, and he vowed to bring the Leffe beer back. Father Nys and the brewer set about the challenge with vigour…and succeeded. Shortly after, the Leffe brewery was back in full effect. After Leffe Brown, a beer that shone brighter than the sun saw the light of day; they named it Leffe Blond – a beautiful chapter for Leffe indeed."

The first thing that is a bit odd is that their beer is 0,75dcl! Amazin stuff! To enjoy it you have to go through this beautiful cork - goes out with a twist of the wrist with a lovely POP sound- easy.

Next thing that will make you smile is the alcohol content - whopping 6.6%!

Leffe flows down your throat like water, you would never guess the alcohol content till you had a few (and you quickly forget that 0,75 litre with 6,6%alc.) Lovely stuff. It was never so easy to catch a happy buzz.!

Colour is just magnificent and goes perfectly with the beautiful smell. Leffe Blond is best served at 5-6°C in a beer chalice, which will allow all the flavours to come through.
