Leffe Blanche

◎ Aussehen

Pale straw-yellow hue with a distinctly hazy, unfiltered character from yeast in suspension. A dense, pillowy white head forms and persists with fine lacing around the glass. Gentle carbonation yields a soft, creamy visual presentation characteristic of the style.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with bright orange peel and fresh citrus notes, layered beneath warm spice from coriander seeds. A subtle fruity undertone emerges—stone fruit and light banana from the yeast—while wheat grain adds a gentle cereal foundation. The aromatics remain inviting and balanced, neither aggressive nor faint.

◐ Geschmack

Entry is crisp and refreshing, with citrus and coriander dominating the mid-palate in equal measure. The coriander delivers a peppery warmth that evolves into light spice, while the orange contributes a gentle zest. Residual wheat sweetness provides body without heaviness; bitterness remains restrained at 15 IBU, allowing aromatics to shape the flavor arc.

◑ Abgang

The finish is dry and quick, with coriander and citrus fading into a clean wheat note. A mild, refreshing aftertaste persists without lingering bitterness.
