Kronenbourg 1664

Kronenbourg 1664 is a French brewery that produces lager beer, based in Alsace in northeastern France. The brewery takes its name from the year 1664, though the actual founding date and historical details of the company's establishment in Strasbourg are part of its brand identity. As one of France's most recognizable beer brands, Kronenbourg 1664 specializes in pale lager production.

The beer is brewed using traditional lager techniques with a blend of hops that includes the aromatic Strisselspalt hop variety, which is grown in the Alsace region. This gives Kronenbourg 1664 its characteristic floral aroma and clean, crisp taste profile typical of European pale lagers. The brewing process follows conventional bottom-fermentation methods, resulting in a golden-colored beer with moderate alcohol content and a balanced malt-to-hop ratio that appeals to mainstream tastes.
