Very malty, with a dark amber color. Creamy head.Aroma is malt and spice. Taste is malt. Malt, malt ,malt...on the edge of decent.

50cl can at Casino supermarket in Paris. Actually it’s a common bottle. Dark golden color. Thin head and medium lagerish carbonation. Light sweetness. Light malt aroma, also some fruit. Better than I expected.

7.2% gold colour with a thin head, malt aroma, a good strong offering from Kronenbourg.

Canned as Kronenbourg 7.2 blonde: Big vast white head, disappears slow and leaves a sticky thick but airy lacing on top of a clear yellow golden colored beer. Smell washing soap, fresh dish water, soapy hops and malts, hint of fruit like apple ish something. Not good! The taste isn’t getting this beer a bit up either, a nasty unbalanced mix of sweets, sweet malts, nasty malts, soapy hops, tend to go to nasty bitter, light grassy, plastic sweets, grainy sweets, corn, soap. There is so much different sweet notes but it’s not a sweet beer, more of a stingy lightly sharp ish. Aftertaste is sweet grains, fish, nasty hay, plastic grass, plastic corn, yak. Medium carbo, tingly mouthfeel, low to medium body and a watery creamy texture. Drunk half a 0.5 liter can just to make sure I wrote the correct things, but damn, this is not good. What a dissapointment, lol

Can from a Monoprix near Republic (as 7.2 Blonde). Pours gold with a foamy white head. Aroma is rather corny without a lot of hop. Med body. Flavor is grainy/corny with a hint of noble hop. No fusil oils, so it’s not terrible, but it’s just not very tasty, and the bitter level is very low. Bleh.

Can @ home. Aroma is metallic malt, sweet caramel, artificial sweetness. Meh. Flavour is less worse then expected. Some caramel, some malts, almost no hops.

Bottle from Intermarche supermarket, Couche, France. Golden coloured with toffee and floral citrus fruity flavours and a very dry hoppy finish.

Can. Deep gold colour, stable, foamy white head. Aroma of sweet malt. Taste is sweet, malty, medium bitter: strong at the beginning, but very weak at the end.
