Kölsch Spring

Score

7.51

ABV: 4.9%

IBU: -

Ticks: 22

Originally brewed as our hoppy welcome to Spring after the long, dark months of winter, this low ABV, kölsch inspired ale is cool fermented and dosed with Nelson Sauvin. Lower fermentation temperature slows the yeast's metabolism and provides balance by gently subduing super-fruity esters and spicy phenols. Sprang is refreshingly light bodied with aromatics of earthy evergreen, passion fruit, and faint doughy malt. Flavors of concord grape, mango, and herbaceous white wine interweave with cracker-crisp, pilsner malt character and minimal bitterness. The finish is dry with a lasting touch of grain.

Lilly, scallion nose, not strong. Hazy golden, thin head. Honeysuckle, lemon. Medium body, moderate carbonation. New England style kolsch? I like it, but I'm not sure if kolsch bois will.

Tap @ Trillium, Canton. Hazed golden yellow pour, small white head. Great haze once the initial eggy sulphur dies down. Quite juicy.

Canned, 473 ml shared with Miro B, Max and Zec. Hazy yellow, white head. Hoppy, dank, some fruity notes. Soft texture. Light to medium bodied. More like a pale ale.

Pours a hazy pale straw from a can, white head with minimal lacing. Aroma is gym socks and melon. Flavor is similar, a little thin, bitter finish. Good beer.

16-05-17 // 500ml can at home, shared, bought at Trillium Boston by a friend. Very hazy light yellowish beer, almost no head. Nothing in common with a german Kölsch but I dont care its a great refreshing beer. Light bodied, some straw and hay, pale malts, mild grains. Mild grape, some fruits, even wineous notes. Minimal bitter finish. Great.
