2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20
Bottle. Pours clear yellow, white head. Aroma is malty and hoppy skunky.
Flavor is hoppy, crisp and watery. Nothing offensive here. This is completely drinkable for the genre. In fact, I could probably sling back a few of these in the hot summer sun, or the bleak darkness of the winter.

An acceptable mass-produced lager! Straw coloured with a white head and highly carbonated; full in the mouth with some bitterness and a hint of pears; a sweet aftertaste.

Clear thirst quencher. Grassy lemon flavor that is somewhat short-lived. Light body and very little aroma.

From a 500mL can: Pours a nice dark gold with some carbonation and has a nice frothy white head of two fingers. Aroma is sweet and floral with some hops. Overall the aroma is quite promising, which leads us to the flavor: Bland corn some malted barley and faint hops with a fruity, bitter finish. Overall, I’d say that this is a good beer. Although the flavor was the only real disappointment, this beverage is getting very poor recognition.

The only French beer served at Disneys Epcot. Pours light gold with a thick frothy head. Musty, yeast, malt aroma. Taste is crisp clean and a little malty. Good for a hot day, but nothing special.

12 oz. bottle. Pours a pale yellow with a thicker than expected 2 finger, lingering white head. Grassy, processed aroma that’s a bit skunky. Boring, massed-produced lager flavor with not much taste. Crisp with no lingering or memorable aftertaste. Not surprising for France’s #1 beer.

0.33 l bottle from Systembolaget - hard to spot any difference to the ordinary Kronenbourg - light clear body with a small head - a light hoppy aroma with a little smell of corn - light sweet smell, maybee a little lighter because of the corn - medium carbonation

On tap. Clear gold, high carbonation. Aroma is grassy, similar corn odour you get from generic mass produced products. Flavour was a touch fruity (apple, pear). Slight overtone of straw. Mostly still that sweet malt/corn. Not terrible, all things considered. Still - their slogan is "la première bière francaise". Je ne pense pas. Drink it quick and cold.
