Draft. Pours a light orange color with a small white head. Nose is light biscuit and some grassy hop notes. Palate is fizzy. Flavors of light biscuit and the grassy hops with a light sweetness to it like honey.

Pale golden color, head quickly gone, but leaving some lace. The nose is slightly grassy with some hops. The body contains some bitterness following a rather intense spritziness. Finishes with a light bitterness and some accompanying grassiness.

Golden yellow, white head, big bubbles. Some malt, some hops, maybe an adjunct or two. Lighter body. Nothing that offensive, but pretty bland.

Draught in Geneva airport. Clear gold with a medium, creamy white head that settles fast. Aroma is a little sour and grainy with some hops, but is very faint in intensity. Flavor is dry and bitter with some hop flavor; a little bready with some grain in the finish; not too clean. Light palate with high carbonation and lingering bitterness. Overall, its got more hops than I would have expected in a pale lager, and that makes it more interesting than most, but they don’t really make it taste that much better.

Certainly light--in all aspects. Appearance, Aroma, Flavor. All are really light with this one.

The only French beer served at Disneys Epcot. Pours light gold with a thick frothy head. Musty, yeast, malt aroma. Taste is crisp clean and a little malty. Good for a hot day, but nothing special.

Pale, skunky, and boring. Slightly better than the mass produced American lagers. I was in an old bar on Central in AZ called The George and Dragon. This elderly Scottsman sitting next to me suggested I try the Kronenbourg in a bomber, he called it the kronic. I asked the old chap why the name sake. He went on to tell me they call it Kronic because if you drink too much of it, you’ll feel kronic the next morning. No shit ? BUAGH!!
