Kronenbourg 1664 is the most sold French beer in the world and the market leader for high-end premium beers. It was named after the year the Hatt family, the founders of Kronenbourg, first started commercial brewing. Kronenbourg is the fifth oldest beer brand in the world that still exists today.

Its golden hues and delicate bitterness come from selecting the best hops, the 'Strisselspalt', and the unique know-how of Kronenbourg’s master brewers for over 300 years.

Drunk in the hotel in Paris on our last night. Pretty straightforward green-bottle flavor (hint of light-struck), earthy hops with light malt. It's alright. Strangely, I recall the alkfrei from them was better!

(Can) Golden colour with frothy, white head. Malty nose with crisp-bread, herbs, honey and citrus. Malty taste with notes of white bread, herbs, apricots, honey and citrus. Hardly any bitterness. Light body, dry. Crisp and clean, but hardly exciting. Enjoyable.

It is a drinkable lager, yellow gold color, thin foam, malty and some hop. This one is better than the red one, 31.03.16, really popular in the French part of Switzerland.

One of the better euro lagers. Went down well after a walk round a very hot La Rochelle. 33 cl draught at Cafe de la Paix.

Bottle. Clear pale yellow/gold with an ok white head. Aroma and taste of lemons, grains and grass with a healthy dose of skunkiness. Low bitterness. Medium carbonation. Inoffensive, bland and very far removed from being considered delicious.
