Commercial Description:
A very light golden ale that is malty sweet, almost honey-like in the nose. This ale has a light to medium body and a very delicate flavor. Easy drinking, it has very low bitterness and a soft dry finish.

Slightly hazy straw colour. Light, husky, light bitterness (~20). Maybe some grassiness but mostly a clean straw taste. Not terribly kolsch-like.

On tap at some hotel in some town in AZ - God I hate travel! Clear light yellow, decent bright white head and lacing. Bit of citrus on the nose and palate. Light malt and bread flavors with a touch of spices. Very soft on the palate, like a good pilsener, with good carbonation and an pleasant aftertaste. A nice simple beer, just not worth pursuing.

Light gold...minimal aroma or head. Easy and light with slight honey, golden raisin...nice for a session brew. On tap at Tempe brewery.

Nice clean example of a kolsch. The color was of light straw and it had a very authentic flavor resembling good german kolsch beers i’ve had in Cologne. Nice job.

Sampled at the brewery. Nice brilliant straw color. Low foam characteristic with very little lacing. A very smooth beer that is actually a bit creamy. I would like to see this beer a bit more crisp and dry in the finish.
