Kronenbourg 1664 Bière

Kronenbourg 1664 is a premium lager brand originally brewed in Strasbourg, France. It is named after the year the brewery was established by Geronimus Hatt. The brand is renowned for its distinctive blue bottle and the use of Strisselspalt hops from the Alsace region, which give it a unique floral and citrusy profile.

Over the centuries, the brewery evolved from Brasseries Kronenbourg to become a major player in the global beer market. Today, the brand is owned by the Danish multinational brewer Carlsberg Group, which acquired the brand following a consortium takeover of Scottish & Newcastle. While it retains its French identity and significant production in Obernai, France, it is also brewed under license in various international markets to satisfy global demand.
