As a beer on its own, its not great but I would take it over Sol or Corona any day.

Comparing it with "real deal" Abbey beers makes no sense. It should be compared with the <a href="http://www.pivni-filosof.com/2009/04/at-least-their-wines-are-good.html" rel="nofollow">"Abadía"</a> from Super Bock.

It is somewhat of a lifesaver for us craft beer lovers living in Spain (Barcelona in my case), since it's available in some regular food stores.Tomas Nihlénhttp://www.tomasnihlen.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12501248.post-45909118026659603062009-09-24T09:26:39.472+01:002009-09-24T09:26:39.472+01:00Never had the mahou negra, always assumed it would...Never had the mahou negra, always assumed it would be rubbish. The trouble with Spanish beer is that you really want to like it, and after drinking so much rubbish you leap on something like Legado de Yuste and think it's ok, when actually a bog standard beer like Leffe kicks its arse.
