Style: Kölsch

Bottle. This beer has a light lager style aroma, with a light hop citrus quality. The color is very clear golden yellow with a bright white head. The flavor is lightly fruity and balanced toward sweet with a light lemony bitterness. Although there are no offensive qualities it’s not very exciting either, but at least it is thirst quenching. The palate is watery with a light flowery sweetness on the finish.

Pours pale gold with a two-finger white head that not so much fades as instantly disappears. Very nutty aroma, with a good deal of sweetness. Flavor follows the aroma pretty closely, and ends crisply. Excellent session.

Pours a nice golden yellow, with some carbonation, and a little white head Aromas of faint nuttiness and honey, and a tasty flavor that ends with a smooth crisp finish. A great session beer that I should have drank in July not January.

Yellow colored, little white head. Sweet, lemony aroma with some esters and butterness, not very strong aroma. Thin to medium bodied. Flavor is basic kölsch: some hops, lemon and fruits, crispy carbonation. Aftertaste is good with lemon and some cardboardy butterness.

Pours a clear gold color with an inch of frothy white head. The foam dies back after a bit to a thin ring. Spicy herbal hop aroma. Lightly tangy and malty with a moderately spicy hop bite in the finish. Light body but definately not thin or watery. Sparkling carbonation bite, otherwise very smooth and clean tasting

Pours pale yellow with a sudsy white head. The aroma has grassy pale malt, light spice and comes across as sharp, crisp and clean. Medium / light body with some light sharp carbonation. Starts off with crisp malt with a light bit of mustiness and a good amount of spicy hops. The finish has a bit more spice to add to the mix. An enjoyable kolsch that would be nice on a warm summer day, but still fine in winter when I’m having it.

Golden with a nice head. the aroma is discrete with notes of malt and hops. The flavour is mild with notes of malt and caramel and some weak floral notes.

Bottle. High white fluffy quickly disappearing head. Clear yellow body with a lot of carbonation. Weak malt aroma with a vague hint of lemon. Flavor like the aroma weak malt with a touch of lemon. A bit on the thin side and yet quite refreshing because of the carbonation.
