&sq=&lang=&file=File:Kronenbourg_Beer_Bottle.jpg)
Kronenbourg 1664 is a golden pale lager with an alcohol by volume (ABV) of 5.5% in continental Europe and 5.0% and 4.6% for the UK market.[1] It was first brewed in 1664 by Canon Brewery in Alsace, France, by master brewer Geronimus Hatt. It uses the exact same recipe as was first used in 1664.[2] For the UK market only, Kronenbourg 1664 is owned and produced in the UK by Heineken after being bought from Scottish & Newcastle. However, the Carlsberg Group officially still owns and brews Kronenbourg in other markets.[3] The French lager contains Strisselspalt hops, unique to Alsace, which are used in its brewing process and give the beer its bitter and fragrant citrus taste.
