Shiner Kölsch (Summer Stock)

Brewed by Spoetzl Brewery (Gambrinus Company)
Style: Kölsch
Shiner, Texas USA

Definitely fizzy, something seemed wrong like someone forgot to put something in. I tried it a few times, its not bad. It needs a rework

A yellow amber color with a thin white head. Smell is like corn wheat and yeast and hints of floral. The taste is bland hints of wheat and corn, but it seemed more yeasted and unbalanced. A good lawnmower beer.

I poured this down the drain! Pours a yellow urine like color with a bubbly white head. Smells sour and corn like. Tastes like unpleasant water and sweat. No hops aroma or taste IMO. A style I do not like but a horrible representation of that style.

Nothing too remarkable... here. I detected notes of celery and herbs in the aroma. I’d probably have it again if I ran across it at a bbq or picnic.

Something was off in this beer. While you can tell this is a kolsch from the aroma it is well hidden in dead air and takes awhile to find. The taste is another matter, just plain bad, wet cardboard.

This poured pale yellow and had a small thin head. The aroma showed light hops and the mouthfeel was truly clean and crisp. Good summer beer.

Crisp and metalic like drinking fresca out of a can. Flowery nose, honey taste, sugary finish.
