Kronenbourg 1664

Typical premiun lager, with a weak aroma, taste and coloration. Nothing more to say...

While on holiday in France I felt obliged to try France’s number 1 selling lager. Wish I hadn’t. Very little to say, other than wet cardboard, overly carbonated, low bitterness and zero character.

Bottle. Pale blond pour with a small fizzy white head that’s gone before you know it. Nose is grassy and grainy with light cereal and soft hops. Taste is sweet malts, cereal, grassy notes, Euro hops and buttery biscuit. Body is crisp and dry with moderate carbonation and a light-medium overall feel. Ends with more hops, grassy notes and light cereal.

Some notes of banana, caramel, pears. Rather sweet. Some hints of apple? Low bitterness. Rerate: 5.5 ABV. Tall creamy head. Sweet sulphury nose. Grainy taste with a hint of marzipan, rice and banana. Very sweet. Nice lacework. Metallic finish. Poor.

Can. Average fizzy white head that mostly diminished. Some lacing. Clear flat body with a pale yellow colour. Aroma was hay, straw, grass, cardboard. Light bodied with a thin texture. Flavour was bitter with some light sweet notes. Light sweet finish.

a yellow clear body with amostly diminishing white head and a little apple smell aroma a heavy sweet initial flavor and a average sweet finish

A lighter color beer. Full body. Thick syrup texture with heavy malts. Some tin can water flavor as well. Mildly bitter. Long finish. A tad too sweet I’d say.

Clear pour with the slightly medicine/vinegar flavor found in many Eastern Europeans. Not a great beer and certainly not a lot better then the megabrews of the US.
