This light yellow beer poured with a thin white head. I’m not sure how this beer won any awards, since it is a modiocre example of kolsch. The flavor is crisp with some lemon and a chalky slightly bitter finish.

Bottle. Mostly clear golden yellow with a tiny creamy white head. Aroma of light sweet malt, wheat, and a little alcohol. Flavor is sweet with a clean aftertaste that wasn’t bad.

12oz bottle. Pours a clear gold with bubbly white head that fades fast. Nose is grains, light hops and some lemon. Taste is malt, grain and light hops with a citrusy dry finish. Light mouth feel.

Bottle. Pours a medium spritzy golden color. Aroma is rather sweet & perfumy. Medium bodied, floral, perfumy taste. Somewhat sweet. Drinkable but not necessarily recomended

Another underwhelming brew from Flying Dog. Unrecognizable as a Kolsch, full of stale malts. Almost tastes like a gluten-free beer. Total drain pour. Flying dog needs to stick to the big beers.

Bottle. Golden with a small head. Aromas are soft cream and vanilla with biscuit malts and tea. Floral with light citrus. Flavours are dry grapefruit with wheat. Some tea with earthy hops. Drinkable but dull.
