Super Kroon Pale Ale is an old-fashioned Belgian Pale Ale. This beer is brewed on the basis of a historical recipe of the Brewery De Kroon. At that time, the beer was called "Super Crown" Pale Ale in reference to English beers. The wonderful character of the Super Kroon is the result of the use of caramel malts, fermentation with wild yeasts and very intense hopping. EBC 40.

Bottle @ benzai. Hazy orange to amber colour with a no real head. Smells herbs, spices, sweet, apple, apple pie. Tastes bitter in a non pleasant way, herbs, watery. Too much carbo, thin body. Not worthy of the name ’Kroon’. #supportgerard

25cl bottle from Chez Marie, Ieper. Very intriguing taste this. Pours clear amber with foamy white head. Aroma of lemon sherbet, taste is creamy pineapple & blackberries with smooth caramel malt keeping things under control. Different and interesting.

From tap at the brewery’s premises. Lovely old-fashioned pale ale (rather than just ’amber ale’ as it is classified here) resurrected by professor Delvaux at De Kroon. The man is a beer engineer striving for perfection and it shows: though essentially a pretty simple beer, this is well-crafted in all the details, without any flaw at all. It is a deep coppery amber beer with slight haze under a yellowish white, stable, sticky head; aroma of red apple, walnut, vanilla, melon, white candi sugar, strawberry, herbal hops. Soft and rounded fruity palate, subtle and utterly elegant, melon touch, nutty malts in the middle, ending in a lightly peppery hop bitter finish, long and dry. Delightful, at least fresh from tap, I have not yet tasted this from a bottle.

@Leuven, 25cl, 6.8%, Helder amber met witte kraag. aroma van basis pilsmouten en brett achtig zuurtje. Ook komt deze brett/fruit achtige zurigheid terug in de smaak; en dat kan ik erg waarderen, speciaal als het zo bedoeld is, lage bitterheid, zwak zoet, caramel, licht, lage co2, appel, licht hoppig, ietwat metalig, goede smaken maar de complexiteit uit de omschrijving haal ik er niet uit.
