Jun 27, 2008 Orangey-amber colour. Decent nose has caramel, diacetyl. Lightly fruity palate, a little overwhelming on the diacetyl. Not so summery in that respect. And I’ve never had a butterbomb kolsch before.

Aug 5, 2005 (12oz bottle) Crystal clear amber body topped by medium off-white head. Aroma is moderately sweet, caramel, bread. Taste is medium sweet, bread, caramel, light pepper, lemon. Some earthy and light grassy in the finish. Light-medium body, light stickiness, easy drinking. Seems to have more the characteristics of an alt than a kolsch.

Jun 2, 2005 Poured a medium, clear golden color with an averaged sized off white head. Aroma of oranges, grass and some malts. Tastes of the same and a little nutty. Medium sweetness to it with a light hop presence. Crisp finish. Thinner body for my tastes.

Aug 9, 2006 Any first impressions?
-A generous head of foam recedes to a ring around the transparent honey glaze.
-Sweet mango esters are subtle in the nose, not engaging, dozing off into the light grain.
-Banana and peachy fruitiness sweeten the mild earth sturdiness.
-The body is very nicely fed, and the frothy carbonation works with it.
What if you dig deeper?
-It finishes smoothly, with some grainy sweetness, and the shadow of citrusy hops.
-The fruity sweetness initially perceived soon takes the form of honey.
-This is a very well-brewed kölsch, but fails to interest me in the long run.
Bottle; no date.
