A french beer in my best beer. Incredible. I compare this beer to "Bass" beer. Great color, strong but great taste. You need to try this beer. I don’t really agree on the rating of 2.32.

Kronenbourg 1664 (France) - 5% 500ml
A light tasting lager with a golden complexion. Hints of caramel and honey give it a sweet aftertaste. Another favourite.

Pours a crystal clear slightly gold with minimal head that leaves a lot of lacing as it drops. Nose is mild with a touch of sweet malt aroma. Flavor is actually pretty decent for a mass produced brew. Has a fair amount of sweet tone to it that lasts long on your tongue but carries a slight touch of body from the malts. The sweet stays on your tongue longer than anything else. Mouthfeel is good. Thick carbonation and a lasting flavor. Drinkability is very high. I could go for these all the time. This one is a surprise for me and I am glad to have 5 more to be drinking.

The French beer with the German name... standard Eurolager, which makes it waaaaaaay better than any North American industrial swill.

33 Cl Bottle - Paris, France
I am one of the few who have actually tasted this beer straight from France itself. The stuff that they import to Canada is shit. But the actual local stuff is fantastic. A dark gold colour, with a nice white lasting head. Aroma of citrus, sweet flavor, with a semi-dry finish. A fantastically crafted beer. Please dont give up on it just yet, head over to France and you’ll see what I mean ;)

Kronenbourg 1664 has a very thick, frothy, whipped-cream like head and a clear, golden appearance, with lots of bubbles streaming up. Lots of thick lacing is left behind. The aroma is mild and lightly-roasted barley malt. I could not pick up a hop smell. Taste is mild, but interesting. Breadiness predominates, but some minimal hop spice is picked up at the end of the sip, however this bitterness is stronger in the aftertaste. Mouthfeel is light to medium, and Kronenbourg 1664 finishes crisp, refreshing, and good. Overall, this is a good beer, and you should try it. Happily, my sample from the green bottle was not skunked.
