Commercial Description:
Our tribute to Cologne’s unique, crisp, golden ale/lager hybrid. We start with German malt and hops and tie it all together with a true Kolsch yeast from Cologne to impart some subtle fruit and wine flavors while producing the smoothness of a lager. Served in an authentic Kolsch stange to enchance the crisp, cool, effervescence of this thirst-quenching beer. Malts: German pilsner, Munich and wheat Hops: German Spalt and Hersbrucker

(On tap) Clear, pale golden with a small, white head leaving some laces. Rather clean, malty nose. Fairly light-bodied with a clean malt base and a dry, fresh hopping. Very quenching and refreshing. 210307

From tap at the brewpub. Pours clear and golden yelloe with a small white head. Cornish and light butterish aroma. Cornish and mild butterish flavoured. Mild bitter finish.

Draught at the brewpub. Clear pale golden, no head. Fruity, perfumy nose. Sweet and fruty with some grassy hops and sparkling mouthfeel. Some unfortunate notes of syrup before a grassy, salty finish. A very decent kölsch.

Golden colour. Light grassy continental hop nose with bready malts. Crisp, lightly fruity flavour with a rather tangy malt character. Finishes sweetish. Wow, actually Kolsch-like.

Tap, Magnolia Pub and Brewery, San Fransisco- some lemony bitterness, pretty grainy and really not much else, pretty boring.

Light yellow, grainy, stinky pils aroma... light and crisp, corn and grain/cereal flavor. Crisp, but bad overall flavor.
