Kronenbourg 1664 Blanc is a premium wheat beer celebrated for its distinct blue bottle and citrus-infused flavor profile. The brand traces its heritage back to 1664 in Strasbourg, France, when Geronimus Hatt founded the brewery. For centuries, it has remained a hallmark of French brewing tradition, specifically associated with the Alsace region.

Today, the brand is owned by the Danish multinational Carlsberg Group, which acquired the brand as part of the acquisition of Scottish & Newcastle in 2008. While the flagship brewery remains located in Obernai, France, Kronenbourg 1664 Blanc is produced in multiple countries across the globe to serve international markets, including sites in the UK, Poland, and Asia under the Carlsberg Group umbrella.

As of 2026, the brand continues to be a core pillar of Carlsberg's international specialty portfolio, maintained by the headquarters in Copenhagen, Denmark. The beer's recipe combines historical brewing techniques with modern flavors like coriander and orange peel, positioning it as a lifestyle beer worldwide.
