Launch of the Kronenbourg Eiffel Beer Tower @ The Coastal Settlement

Was invited to witness the unveiling of the Kronenbourg 1664 Eiffel Beer Tower, an iconic innovation by Carlsberg Singapore. The launch party was held at The Coastal Settlement (TCS) a new establishment (casual dining restaurant, cafe and bar) located at 200 Netheravon Road. The date: 14th December 2011.

thirsty? How about a BLANC?

Got myself a bottle of Kronenbourg BLANC 1664 (yup, the blue bottle, so pretty!), a specialty white beer that has a clean refreshing taste. Carbonated, light, crisp and citrusy. Just don't forget that it still has an ABV of 5%. Kronenbourg 1664 beers are brewed from Strisselspalt hop (also known as 'caviar of hops') and water from Vosges Mountains., hence the clean smooth taste.

Soon, it was time to gather for the much awaited launch and all eyes were upon the stage.

Upon the light up, confettis fell from the ceiling and dancers suddenly rushed in.  Can-Can dance performance! My first time seeing one too. Shrieks, twirls, colours and lots of skin and legs. Ahem.

Can't show you too many pictures of the can-can dancers. This is a food blog after all! Hahaa! Let's play nice, shall we.

After the dance performance, the Kronenbourg 1664 Eiffel Beer Tower was finally revealed for the first time, in the world. This iconic innovation is a 1m tall replica of Eiffel Tower and holds 3L of beer, and has four taps instead of just 1! Woohoo!

ta-dah!

Let's take a closer look.

ready, get set, pour!

four taps, four times the sharing fun!

cheers!

The Kronenbourg 1664 has a much stronger taste of bitter lager. Dense and smooth as well. Yums.

The night was filled with music, merry making, good food and lots of Kronenbourg beer!

Went to explore abit the outer side of the restaurant. The area seems quite big. Alfresco and indoor dining are available.

Then, it was time to head back indoors for some more food and beer.
