Aug 28, 2006 Tap. Caramel and barley malt aroma. Clear orange amber color with moderate head. Slightly sweet malt flavor with moderate hops present throughout. Hops flavor much more up front than is typical for the style but gives this one more body and works well. Another great 3F brew.

Mar 30, 2003 A nice change of pace after hitting some heavier beers. Crisp, light, and a beautiful golden hue. Great first beer at the tour.

Apr 8, 2009 Imperial pint draft at the brewpub. Easy drinking and smooth, the session light beer. Rather well done Kolsch actually, leaning more to the malty side of the spectrum. Filtered orange-tan color. Fresh malt and hop aroma. Refreshingly well done.

Jan 4, 2003 Smooth aroma followed by a unique combination of light hops. Overall I really liked this while sampled at the brewery. Great spicy starter beer.

Jul 14, 2004 Updated: Aug 14, 2006Draft, and 3F’s, 8/14/06 This beer is back after two years; finally a chance to revisit it. Nice pale ale-ish color, with a touch of cloudiness under an inch-thick head that stays pretty frothy. Smell is more like a wit. Taste is much less grainy than before, much more malty. Nicely rides that line between ale and lager. In the middle of the glass, there’s a fine north German hop bitterness clinging to the back of the mouth. Then a hint of ale fruitiness that again reminds me of something Belgian. Finish is almost syrupy. Yes, much better than before.
Original rating 7/14/04, rated 2.3. Draft, poured by Nic Floyd. Can this be? A 3F that’s not that great??! Well, maybe the tap was off because I tasted nothing like the descriptions here. I got a big off-flaver of raw grain. Mild citrus hop could not make up for it. I will have to re-sample sometime.

Jul 19, 2001 Rather a lightweight beer. First Koelsch I’ve had, so I can’t really say how it relates to the style, but I basically thought this was a bit short on flavor. What flavor it had was fine, a lightly malty taste, with a fruity aroma.

Nov 16, 2002 Nice fruity/hop aroma, and suitable body. Lots of hops for a Kolsch, but it’s Three Floyds, so what do you expect. I think they could’ve toned down the hop bite, but overall it’s still a good brew.

Apr 19, 2009 On tap at the brewpub. Golden pour with nice white head. Doughy, fruity aroma with some floral hops. Mild hoppiness, light flavor with lots of fruitiness. Light and effervescent on the palate. The kind of Kolsch that doesn’t suck. Of course Three Floyds made it.
