thegreenrooster (1811), St.louis, Missouri, USA Oct 13, 2008 Pour is a clear yellow with a fizzy white head. Aroma is malty with seom grassyness. Flavor is a super nice bready malt with bitterness at the end. This was a very nice kolsch. BlackDonald (1127), Boise, Idaho, USA Jul 29, 2008 Kind of a weak take on the style. Bready malts that come across kind of husky with a weak body, light floral hops. BlackForestCO (819), Fort Collins, Colorado, USA Dec 28, 2007 On tap at the brewpub. Poured a clear golden color with a fizzy white head. Grainy malt aroma. Slightly sweet grain entry leads into a lacking hop finish.
Some doughy yeast present. Plain and simple. Not a big fan. CaptainCougar (5379), Rockville, Maryland, USA Dec 16, 2007 On tap at the brewpub on 10/14/07: Clear golden color has a thin ring of white head. Aroma of slightly sweet pale malt with some lager yeast profile and noble hops. Body starts slightly thin and fizzy, but true to style with a mild sweetness and slightly floral estery hop and yeast character. A decent Kölsch. goldtwins (4079), Nesconset, New York, USA Nov 1, 2007 Tap @ CooperSmiths: Poured a mostly clear golden yellow with a white head. Malty and mildly sweet aroma. Malty cereal grain notes. Lively carbonation. kp (8400), Woodstock, Georgia, USA Oct 21, 2007 Name: Columbine Kolsch

harlequinn (2745), Tacoma, Washington, USA Jul 4, 2006 This was just a heinous example of this style. Tasted like it was sweetned with corn syrup and almost vegetal and sour. Lots of lemony acidty, with some light cookie dough maltiness. Braudog (3733), Dayton, Ohio, USA Apr 23, 2006 On tap at the brewpub 4/12/06: Bright yellow with little head. Very corny and starchy. Not at all Kolschy, me thinks.
