Alle Braumeister kochen nur mit Wasser – unseres kommt übrigens aus eigenem Brunnen. Und auch die Zutatenliste ist durch Reinheitsgebot und Kölsch Konvention eher kurz: Hopfen und Malz und Basta. Verfeinert mit Hefe. Es ist die Kunst unserer Braumeister, aus wenig viel Geschmack herauszuholen. Nach überlieferter Rezeptur sorgfältig gebraut, ist Gilden Kölsch hopfenbetont am Gaumen, duftet nach feinen Malzaromen und läuft frisch und schlank im Schluck.

Bouteille(Getränke Schneider, Cologne); Golden, clear, stable creamy and lacy white head, visible carbonation; mild grainy and sourish-fruity nose with an illusion of cooked vegetables; mild to moderate bitter-sweet flavour with a slight (fruity) acidity, no infection at all; light bodied and fizzy; lingering fruity and mildly bitter finish. Not demanding, but refreshing...

0.5 l bottle from a local Kiosk, best before January 2018. Clear, golden yellow with a thin, frothy, stable, white head. Slightly sweetish, very grassy aroma of grains and straw. Slightly sweetish, moderately bitter, very grassy taste of grains, lots of straw and faint hints of citrus, followed by a short, rather bitter, slightly dry and grassy finish. Almost medium-bodied, slightly effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Quite okay, relatively quaffable but rather bland.

Can. Clear golden/yellow. Nice head. Aroma of grains, wheat and some grass and a hint of lemons. Taste is grainy, malty and slightly bitter, fruity and tart. Almost leaning into Pilsener territory. Medium to strong carbonation. Dry, clean and crisp. Ok.

Draft @ Gilden in Zims. Golden with a medium white head. Aroma had fresh pilsener malt and grassy hops. Flavor was crisp with a solid malt base and a fair amount of noble hops. Finished dry and bitter.

Bottle looks ok from here. Aroma is wheat and a little graininess. Taste is sweet bubblegum with some pils like tartness. Same in the finish. Ok.

500ml bottle on 3rd Oct 2016, Crown Inn, Oakengates, shared with the wife. Usual clear, light golden body and fast fading snow white head. Refreshing but almost tasteless/odourless, some grainy sweetness in what flavour there is. Just another Kölsch really, subtle to bland in nature, crisp and clean. I try to enjoy Kölsch, but it lacks depth to me. Scored kindly and objectively.

From tap at Kunibert der Fiese in Cologne. Poured a clear but slightly dull pale gold with a short lasting white head. Aroma of sweet maize and grass. Quite high sweetness, little by way of bitterness. Light body, slight sticky texture, high carbonation. First beer on this, a 5 day visit to Cologne - an OK starter...
