450ml bottle. Pours clear gold with a brief medium-sized white head. Aroma is grain, fruit, grass. Taste is medium sweet, slightly light struck. Light bitter finish. I’m pretty sure the Russian-brewed Kronenbourg didn’t taste like this.

Clear pale gold with a moderate airy white head of low retention. Pale malt? lager yeast traces. Sweet corn. That' it. Completely unnecessary.
