Bottle from a sampler. Pours golden (surprise!), crystal clear with a quickly dissipating medium sized head. Aroma of skunk, grass and a nondescript sweetness. Taste is grainy and bitter, with that same sweetness creeping in the background. Decent.

Bottle pours to golden body, little head. Smess is sweet...Very little in the way of taste. Its smooth but leaves little lasting impression. Nothing special here.

(Bottle). Sweetish aroma. Pale golden with average head. Flavor a medicinal lemon, reminds of cough drops. Not a pleasure.

Haven’t had many Kolschs at all realy so I don’t realy know what it should be like, but I know it was very unimpressive.

Golden colour with a small white head. Malty, light sweet aroma with a vague hoppy note. Malty, sweet flavor with grassy notes.

Very well balanced beer. Nice aroma of malts and hops. Taste is mostly light malts and some caramel. Like most of the Flying Dog beers... good, but not great.
