    I love it.
    Wetherspoons in Wpombwell say I was the only person to ever drink it.
    They've take it off now but I got some nice glasses from them.
    I really love it.
    I like the sharp, citrus taste.
    Gutted when they took it off.
    Have to rely on the bottles now!

    Tastes too false to me

    Like they've artificially created a weissbier.

    Try a proper Wit bier

    Like Blanches de Namur or Watou Wit.

    They piss all over Kronenburg Blanc.

    In fact Sierra Nevada Wheat beer is excellent too, as is Paulaner Hacker Pschorr

    RE: dunt any young'uns sup

    If only more 'young uns' as you call it drank decent foreign beers as well as English ales.

    In fact, if most of the 25-45 football fans didn't drink the crap that is FOsters and Carling the World would be a better place.

    My favourite tipple ale wise is Summer Lightning, with a bit of Batemans Rosie Nosie at christmass time

    I tried it at Bramah's a few weeks ago - I didn't like it. Not a patch on normal Kroney. Thats the best lager in the world.

    The stuff purchased in France always tastes better to me, but maybe that's psychological. All the Kronenbourg Blanc here is imported from the UK, weirdly.....

    Well, they have taken it off now at Spoons. Not enough people drinking it!
    Bloody hell, I'm not a one woman band, but apparently not enough people were drinking it and I tried to do it on my own!
    I did try!!

    I am aware that it's not a 'proper' white beer. I'm not that daft.
    Had some great white beers in Belgium, Holland etc.
    What attracts me to white beers is that sharp, citrus flavour, the ice cold glass and slice of lemon - you get all that when you drink white beer in France, Belgium, Holland etc.
    Kronenbourg Blanc was like an 'easy peasy' quick solution to a satisfying 'white beer experience'
    I did love it. although I took some 'reight stic'k for drinking it from fellow CAMRA Members.
    "Oh Spoons, how could you do this to me?"
    I feel bereft, no more white beer......
