Calumet Kolsch

Pours a clear honey colour with a small thin white head. Moderately malty, with a slightly bitter finish. Somewhat grainy at times, with flavors of almonds, carrots and corn.

Beerfest in Chilton. Decent. Yellow color, crisp, with some hops. Nice on a warm day.

Fourth stop during Wisconsin Trip #2 and one of 11 brews offered at this small town brewpub at any time. Pours a pale golden orange/yellow, clear brew, with small white head foam visable quickly rising to the surface. The white head quickly fades to a small ring, but the ring lasts for a while. Aroma has sweet grain malt aroma with a hint of grassy hops. The taste is sweet, wheat malt with grassy hops and some yeast. Light bodied, clean cut and crisp with light carbonation.

Orange-yellow body, light head. Nice balanced seemingly Czech/German fresh and clean hop taste. Light fruit notes and slight grain. Moderate sweetness, but overally, very balanced. Kolschs always seem to be the ones I don’t like. But this was a great beer to start off with at Calumet.

Okl, this is by far one of the coolest bars I’ve been in. The locals are friendly and cool. Bob, the bartender/brewmaster kicks serious ass. Finally they have freakin great beer. Gotta love it!

Clear straw body with small off-white body. Aroma is mild sweet, hint of grass. Taste is mild sweet, with good grassy bitter from mid-body through to swallow. Nice aftertaste too. Crisp light body.

As close to Koln as any domestic I have tasted. Golden color with a a white head. Not as much lace as you would want from this style. Very clean. Noble hops and the slight corn flavor from being cold conditioned ale.
