Kronenbourg 1664 Blanc is a French wheat beer from Brasseries Kronenbourg, built on a recipe of barley malt, wheat, coriander and sweet orange peel. It’s brewed using Strisselspalt, an aroma hop grown only in the Alsace region, which contributes delicate floral character and very low bitterness. It suits someone who wants a French take on a Belgian-style witbier, citrus forward and easy drinking.
