Wednesday night’s tipple was the rather strange 5% ABV Kronenbourg Blanc, from UK brewing giant Scottish & Newcastle. Described as a “refreshing, fruity white beer”, this is in fact blatantly piss-coloured (which probably explains why it comes in an opaque bottle). I found this to be more reminiscent of a weak cider or some kind of bizarre citrus alcopop than anything deserving to have the word “beer” on the label. Still, try everything once except Morris Dancing and incest, as the saying goes.
Jocelyn says: “This is a girly beer! I could drink this! This is fruity, it’s not a beer at all!”
Weird advertising, too – would you buy a drink for this girl?
