Kronenbourg 1664 Blanc

Medium, lasting head, opaque appearence. Fruity, sweet, orange-like flavour, but surprisingly not sweet at all in terms of taste. Refreshing, a nice surprise.

a decent flavoured wheat beer, a cloudy appearance and not too strong a taste.

On tap@BeerPalace Oslo. Hazy yellow body with a thin white head. Aroma is like lemon/citrus or something with yeast. Flavor is very fresh, almost a bit like cider and wit beer. Body is rather watery. This is like a mix of cider and wit in any prospect. A strange beer but very refreshing indeed.

Straw, hazy with a nice head. Both aroma have notes of peach in an artificial way. It’s rather sweet and as time goes by I find this more and more soda like. Probably a good start, if you aren’t yet fond of wheat beers. 1597

Bottle. Yellow hazy colour. Almost no head. Refreshing taste. Taste like Beer mixed with soda.

Draft from Archway Tavern. Pale yellow with no head. Bland citrus nose with hops and a taste to match. Something artificial about it, blah.

bottled. absolutely horrendous. surgical dressing aroma. tasted of yoghurt and orange syrup. words can’t express how utterly undrinkable this is

500ml bottle, from Tesco. Pale yellow/apricot colour with that pallid peachy cast sometimes found in traditional perries. Not much head. Not much aroma either. Very citric on the palate with lemon to the fore, although there are orange and grapefruit undertones too. This gives the beer a rather sharp feel but there’s hidden sweetness too. Definite feel of orange squash or bitter lemon to it. The tart aftertaste lingers long after everything else has left the building. Nothing like a Belgian wit, but I guess it could provide some anodyne refreshment on a hot Summer’s day. Which this was not.
