Crown Lager has a bright golden appearance with a solid creamy head. The fruity aroma leads to a malty refreshing taste with a smooth, full bodied finish. The slightly lingering bitterness gives a balanced, rounded experience which will leave you wanting more.
Our Brew Masters set the most stringent specifications for malting barley to ensure that the barley used in Crown is of Australia’s highest quality.
A handful of the 1,267 registered barley growers around the country qualify to supply this grade for Crown Lager. From this group, a selection of growers are chosen that Crown can confidently attest are ‘Australia’s Finest’ barley farmers.
Balancing a fine line between art and science - years of raw farming experience, technological backing and investment come together to create the key ingredient in every Crown Lager brew.
Our Brew Masters, working in conjunction with farmers at Rostrevor Hop Gardens, select from the Pride of Ringwood’s family of hops at harvest time in March every year. This ensures the very best hops are used exclusively for Crown Lager.
The season’s first choice of hops enable our Brew Masters to better target the specific qualities within the hops that are used for the Crown Lager brew. These hops give a cleaner, smoother bitterness, providing Crown Lager with the distinctive finish that drinkers have savoured for generations.

Bottle @ home, shared with Dutchdrebus. Standard yellow / golden pilsener color, average sized white head, sparkling body. Standard average pilsener smell as well: malts, lightly grainy, little bit bitter. Taste is better than average though: pretty fruity, ok bitterness. Quite decent pilsener.

My friend Mart bought a case of 24 of these when I visited him in Doha, Qatar. Pours a golden colour with an off-white head, decent retention and nice film lacing all-around. A thin coating also stays on the brew the whole time. The scent is pilsner-like with some malt. Smooth mouthfeel with a little stickiness at the end. Malty taste with a bit of hop in the finish and grain showing up in the aftertaste. Not a bad Australian lager, but thicker than other lagers I had here. Harder to drink many of these (compared to the Beck’s - which I also had many).
