Draft. A golden beer with a white head. The aroma has notes of malt and straw. The flavor is sweet with notes of straw, malt, and bread, leading to bitter finish.

Clear golden color, small white head. Pale malty, cracker-like aroma. Light-bodied, watery palate. Crisp, hints of rice, very pale and easy.

5 oz. taster from @ the brew pub. Nose is light grain and corn. Tasty is musty wheat, grain and notes of citrus. Carbonation gives a lively tingle on the tongue. It’s decent for the style.

Crisp, soft without a lot of spicy hops. Clear whit head. A kolsch that could certainly be a nice session beer.

2004 draught @ the brewery. Light golden, orange tinges, small white head, mostly clear. Aroma of hay, grass clippings, and a touch of hops on the end. Flavor starts out crisp, lightly bitter and has a good malt graininess. Finish has plenty of spicy hops and then it ends cleanly and quickly. Not much wateriness, and relative to the style, this is a big golden ale. Not too sweet, which was very enjoyable, and also not too bitter. Didnt find this bland in the least bit and quite the contrary it was perfectly refreshing and drinkable. Moderate, but not stinging, carbonation, medium-light body.
Update.
After drinking this stuff at almost every visit, it rarely disappoints with a bad batch. I have a little diacetyl in it, from time to time, but never is it not drinkable and satisfying. Also, if you get it right after it’s just been brewed, it’s nearly divine, with tons of fresh hop character, crisp, fresh malts and a beautiful, delicate yeast character. Really, really good stuff. I’d say on average it’s about a 3.6 or 3.7, but when at it’s peak, it’s easily a 4.4 or 4.5
