Kasteel Cru Rose is a fine, crisp lager with a distinct rose-like colour and a clean, sparkling taste.
Kasteel Cru is brewed at Brasserie la Licorne[1](en: the unicorn brewery) in Saverne, Alsace, France, using malted barley, hops and pure Alsace water from the Vosges mountains; alcohol volume of 5.2%, and is 129 calories.
Some are even cave-aged in France and are then subjected to remuage and dégorgement, which is the "methode de champenoise" process of removing yeast from the bottle.
Kasteel Cru is the only beer in this style made entirely in France, even its bottle is produced by glass-moulders in Reims.
The heavy carbonation in these delicate beers makes them extremely light tasting and refreshing.
