Kronenbourg 1664

bottle in france. golden with white head. quite boring and average beer. nothing much to say.

Rated: june 2007
Bottle green, 330 ml
Appearance: Very nice, long lasting head as for lager beer, milky. Nice, clear, gold colour of the body.
Aroma: Oats, cereales, a little bit milk, a little bit hops. Nice, very mild malts.
Flavour: Well balanced, nice, mild, malty base, milky, blend with nice hops and well build alcohol but a little bit strong, a trace of good quality water, nice carbonation. Flavuor of potato and a very good rice.
Palate: Sparkling, medium lasting, very unique beer as for a plain pale lager.

Pale gold with just about no white head on draught, none at all in the bottle. Forget about lace, this brew goes buck naked. Grainy aroma, flavor is built of bubblegum, strawberries, yeast and cooked corn. Finished clean with a hint of biscuit. I give a "high" 2.2 on account of the [very mild] flavor complexity.

Had this one in a bottle at Winking Lizard. The aroma was very bland and a bit like stale cigarettes, the flavor was that of a watered down American macrobrew. I did not dig this at all.

12 floz bottle. weak, light, bitter but pleasantly hoppy. little watery though. pours yellow with a frothy head. pale lager.

Draft at Flying Saucer. A golden beer with an OK head - but it disappears all too quickly. The aroma is nicely hoppy - but a little too faint. The flavor is fresh at first, then a bit malt sweet - but then it turns watery. It gets a little back from the nice bitterness.

Bottle. Creamy white good deminishing head. Week but ok hoppy and malty aroma. Light bitter pleasent flavor. Short light bitter finisg. Watery palate. Nice pale lager.

Bottle. Nose is hay and funk, hoppiness. Mouth is some weird touch of wheat to juxtapose the malt hop bitterness. Finishes cleanly. Not much can be said here.
