Kronenbourg 1664

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 maltsweet - but then it turns watery. It gets a little back from the nice bitterness.

(Bottle 33 cl) French version at 5,9% ABV. A truly French classic, remember having this back in the 80’s while visiting my French girlfriend. Oh, sweet memories...
Premium strong lager. Beautiful fully golden colour with a decent head. Well balanced between malts and hops. Good quality lager. 170403

(Bottle 25 cl) Belgian version brewed by Alken-Maas. Pale golden, limited head and unfortunately also limited flavours. Sweet malt and a faint idea of hops. Not bad just very feeble. Typical bland "Premium" lager. 4/2//3/2/8=1,9 020799

33 cL bottle. Pours clear and golden yellow with a slowly collapsing creamy and white head. Aroma is grassy to cornish, seems dry. Flavour is medium sweet cornish with a mild caramel malt note and a light bitterness into the finish. Good thirst quencer.
