Draft, Cambridge House. Pours an effervescent, hazy straw color; thick, textured white head with beautiful retention and lacing that lasts forever; champagne-like effervescence that constantly replenishes the head; gorgeous pour. Very pleasant, dry mineral bitterness in the aroma; bone dry, clean, slightly reserved, with a bit of lime or citrus coming through. Mouthfeel follows suit; dry doughiness at the core, with generous, spritzy mineral and citrus bitterness throughout; perfect feel and mineral dryness in the mouth; generous bitterness without becoming chewy; an awesome, flawless Kölsch. Medium, dry finish, with lingering mineral bitterness and biscuity notes.

Feb 20, 2008 Growler shared by kmweaver. Hazy brilliant yellow/wheat colored body under a thin white head. Wonderfully fresh nose of lemon grass, pillowy yeast, wheat, dough, very light, airy and fresh smelling, with a hint of pils crackers malt. Flavor is mildly sweet, well-balanced, focusing on lemon grass, wheat, more crackers malts, some dough - properly crisp, and the body stands up well as it should in this style. A very delicious psuedo-Kolsch.
