i wake up i drink the koenigsbier, i have lunch i drink also the koenigsbier. i drink it cold and warm. sometimes with friends. its good for erasmus. you can taste is premium quality.

330ml can. Sweet and corn aromas. Taste is corn, lack of body. Average carbonation. Golden color with vanishing white head. Very poor.

Standard pilsner looks, with white frothy head. Standard malts, very little hops use. Fairly smooth, mouth feel is good. Light bitter, standard taste. Jup, it’s a standard pilsner, but not as bad maybe as I expected from the price. (33cl can from Carrefour in Tours)

33cl can. Golden colour with minimal white head. Very slightly malted. Flavor is light and watery in the final.

Can: Medium vast and lightly thicker white head changes with regular speed into a thick lacing on the side and a thin lacing on top of a clear yellow golden colored beer. The aromas are mostly a sweet mess like corn, sweets, some sweet malts, soap, soapy hops and oatmeal. Taste light malty, soapy, sweet grains, some sweeter malts, soaped things that should present hops... Nah this is pretty bad. The more I drink, the nastier it gets... The aftertaste, is there is a real aftertaste, is a very boring and dull mix of sweets, malty grains, ligh bitter, but more sweet and again a hint of those soapy wanna be hops. Low to medium carbo, soft mouthfeel, low body and a light creamy texture. Kind of average, though the soft mouthfeel makes it more pleasant.

Canned 500ml. -found somewhere in Paris. Managed to miss Extra Forte because "don’t have change to back???!!!" problem in the shop. WTF!!! Golden coloured, small white head, dusty malty nose with hint of honey. Sweet malty, watery and some cardboard with rather sweet finish. What a crap...

Can from Vival supermarket, Montmorillon, France. Pale golden with a sweet, light malty and toffee flavour and a slightly bitter, metallic finish.

Canned. Yellowish golden colour with a small white head. Aroma is grains, herbs and some mild wooden nots. Flavour is grains caramel earth and some mild floral notes. Quite bulk feeling to it.

Canned at PBF. Clear pale golden, brief head. Neutral nose. Sweetish, bland and empty. Notes of aluminium. No bitterness. Beyond hopeless.

Clear yellow with shite foam head. Could not detect any aroma, but for a beer at the camping this is good enough. Taste like any other mass produced pilsener, nothing to report. (Lyon 201207)
