LEFFE BLONDE ALE

Flowery aromatic hops, dry honey-malted wheat, and gentle clove spicing give butterscotch-fronted, ginger ale-textured blonde (from a 13th century recipe) its gentle white wine appeal. Wavering orange-bruised tangerine tang and silken banana-breaded vanilla whim stung by phenol coarsening. Well carbonated and lightly fruited but nothing extraordinary.
