A traditional lager with just the right amount of bitterness. The name comes from the eponymous master brewer who founded a number of brasseries in the east of France, back in the 30's. The brasseries produced their own beer and offered a menu based on traditional Alsatian dishes.

"I can understand why some people have this beer ranked lowly. Its french and not a great beer. But when in france, imported beer is expensive and this is the best deal you can get. Its a nice beer and has a smooth taste and nice flavor. Appearance is nice and aroma is decent. A good french beer."

[3] Review by jonmoore from United Kingdom who has tried this beer a couple times. (7/18/2006 9:37:04 AM)
"Draught at a bar, somewhere in Paris, France. Golden colour with a slim white head. Not a bad lager; light hop aroma, malty taste. Clean, crisp and drinkable."

[4] Review by Sigmund from Hafrsfjord, Norway who has tried this beer a couple times. (5/2/2005 6:22:51 PM)
"An average standard French pale lager, in the Alsacian German-influenced brewing tradition. Seems to have a more local Alsacian following than Kronenbourg and Kronenbourg 1664, which you get all over France. In later years Kanterbräu seems to have become more of a discount beer than the other two. Nothing special. Kronenbourg 1664 is slightly better."
