Kronenbourg 1664

Brewed by Kronenbourg (Carlsberg)
Style: Pale Lager
Strasbourg, France

bottle. golden with clarity. thin foamy head. light grain, rice and a little funk in aroma. mild. sweet malts and grain. simple and clean.

on tap and bottled. Pale yellow colour, medium-sized head. Hoppy and malty, well-drinkable but quite boring. lacks its own character.

[226-20070305] 500mL. Light yeast straw grain aroma, slightly mouldy. Clear, light orange yellow body with some quick-rising big bubbles and pours a big foamy white head. Flavour holds sweet straw and light yeast, fairly bland. Light body has sweet roundness. Tastes better than it smells, could almost repeat but for that aroma.

Decent lager, though nothing particularly great. Decent hop flavor, a pretty average beer.

This is about the best of the mass produced European lagers that are freely avaliable in most UK pubs. Typical amber lager colour. Fairly strong tasting, slightly creamy and not too sweet like some of your US lagers, but nothing special, though much better than filth like Foster’s, Carling, Carlsberg etc.. Overall, pretty average - I would rather seek out a pub that serves decent (English) real ale (i.e. Fullers or Shepherd Neame) or bottled German Weissbier.

not very attractive aroma initially, not much on the appearance, fizzy head, flat body, flavor got better once it got on your palate, light and smooth lager, palate was smooth, light and overall it is good and refreshing if you want a quick light grab, lacks in the complexity.

Pale yellow has a hoppy feeling and a big white fluffy head who stays long a bit watery but still a o.k beer.

Tap. Aroma is sweet and malty with a small touch of honey. Very neutral, but not bad, taste.
