Not a bad beer, really. There’s just not that much to it. Both aroma and flavor are faint, a sweet bready malt with some grassy hops - - but both are barely there. Watery finish. The end.

Dark straw color with a white unimpessive head. Seems gassy with slight cardboard and grass aromas. Fairly thin and odd malt flavors. Acidic after taste.

A bit sweet and fresh. Not at all like the other Kronenbourg beers.

Oh boy, an international lager. Tasted this in some internet cafe on Rue Ste-Catherine for a rediculous price, but hey, it’s 7:30 in the morning, I’ve been up for about 22 hours and I’ve walked all over Montreal, it’s time for a beer and a sit down damnit! Very light straw color, light white head, some lacing. Nose of light stale fruit, some husky notes along with a weird burnt note. The flavor is thin with more alcohol bite than it should. Finishes watery, medium bodied, not completely revolting, but to think, I bought this instead of a Blance de Chambly. Ouch.

The bottled version on the shelves in France has more alcohol - 5.9% (the same as the 1664 Fleur de Houblon q.v.). However, it is still quite malty and rather bland. Under-hopped in my view. Bottled, France, December 2003

Draft. Clear amber color with small white head that was gone in a moment. Little of no aroma with same small flavor. Finish was small and short.

Draught. A yellow gold coloured lager with an aroma of grass and glass. The taste is mostly gassy with a dull malt flavour. There are definitely worse lagers out there. I could be forced to drink this again.

Can. Pours a clear golden color with a longlasting white head. Sweet malty grassy aroma. The flavor is sweet malty with some bready and grassy hints. Long malty finish with some sweetness. Has some bitterness in the aftertaste.
