Commercial Description:
Inspired by the Kolsch beers of Germany, Ravenwood is fermented at ale temperatures, then cold conditioned for a delicate dryness and tangy flavor that leaves you thirsty nevermore.

Excellent example of the Kolsch style. Crisp, light, with excellent body and carbonation. Easily my favorite DuClaw offering... And now I understand it is to be discontinued? DuClaw brewers need to re-think that decision. There is no better example of the style available--bottle or tap--in Maryland.

On tap at Arundel Mills/Hanover brewpub. A good beer, very pale, light on flavor and body. But provides a nice cleansing sensation and overall refreshing ambience to a meal.

On tap at Duclaw, Bowie, Md. location. Poured out a very light golden yellow color, almost clear. Thin white head faded all too quickly. Aromas are of fresh malts, yeasty bread, and sweet hay. Tastes are of a bland nature, with malts and yeast making up the bulk of the flavors. Subdued hops, both in flavors & aromas. Decent beer, but kind of thin bodied for my liking.

Clear, bright appearance, nice lacy head. Slightly fruity nose, tart flavor. Very refreshing. My first experience with a real Kolsch, and I was very pleased with how refreshing this beer was.

Pours a piss gold wiith no head. Hops are very subtle, leaving the flavor profile mostly malty, but this is bland and generally uninteresting. The finish fades quickly.
