Pours a pale shade of golden with a fizzy head. Not too nice aroma, very corny and showing very little hops. Flavour is thin, bordering on watery. Thin, slightly malt with a fake bitterness. Pretty ordinary.

Yep a golden yellow poured from the can... Light hops with some bitterness, I do agree. Some crisp malt presence to quench the day’s heat. This beer has corn in it besides malt but it’s reasonably good tasting without corn-worty artefacts - I feel it is well made macro suds. One thing is the carbonation is slightly sharp and the aftertaste not so clean, a tinge metallic perhaps. But leagues better than Becks, for sure. I’m surprised. But if I were drinking this in France I’d have a peristent vague uneasy sense I could better occupy my taste buds in said evirons. Could be worse but nothing memorable.

12 oz bottle poured into lager glass- poured light golden yellow, a frothy white head that slowly disappeared, aroma of yeast, possibly very hard water used to make the brew. Hits the mouth with a thin watery body, definate Euro-lager taste, finish a little lacking. Not impressed.

draft - a decent lager. Clean, slightly hoppy aroma, spritzy. Thin but fairly dense head. medium body, high carbonation, good malt/hop up front. Weak finish.

Bottle. Pours a clear golden with a decent looking white head that dissipates quickly and leaves a little lace. Aroma is faint, but there are signs of hops and a sweet malt. Grassy and spicy. Taste is similar. More spicy hops than most lagers. Very refreshing despite its simplicity. Overall, a beer that brings back a lot of memories and tastes better than most shitty lagers here in America.

Pale yellow with a nice white head and noticeable carbonation. Initial nice fruit flavor, crisp hop finish. Good for a pale lager, but I don’t know how much of a compliment that really is.

Bottle. Pours a pale golden color with a small white head that diminishes quickly. The aroma is wheat grass and floral. Decent lacing on the glass. The taste is a typical lager with corn mat and a bit skunky. Not too much going on with this pale lager from Kronenbourg.

Pale yellow, fizzy white head. Corny nose with some hay. Somewhat malty flavour with a little sweetness. Fairly hoppy at the end.
