From tap at Braustelle. Hazy yellow color with white head. Light malty aroma, some straw and grassy notes. Sweet and bitter taste, grassy, bready, light citrusy. Medium oily with soft carbonation.

Hazy yellow color with no head. Aroma of caramel, yeasts, fruity, buttery. Taste id similar. Finish has quite some bitter hops. Smooth and refreshing. Not bad. Update: From the tap at the brewpub. Very hazy orange-yellow color with white head. Aroma is citrus fruity, yeasty. Taste is light, citrus fruity, with a bready body. Bitter finish. Nice!

Bottle as Freigeist. Unfiltered grey-orange body. Semi-buttery, reminds me of US Kolsch. Bright, but the butter tones are unacceptable to me. Doesn’t really capture the style. Neutered hospital Kolsch. The lack of filtration gives it some body. Overall not that impressive of an offering.

Some grass. Golden pour with good head and lacing. Light bitter finish. Good and easy drinking. Lots of barley. Tap at pizza paradiso.

Vom Faß in der Braustelle, Köln-Ehrenfeld. - Orangegelb, sehr trüb, sahniger weißer Schaum. - Nase erstaunlich verhalten, schwach zitrusfruchtig-hefig. - Antrunk kräftig hopfenbitter mit Orangenschale, eingebettet in weiche Hefe. Mild rezent. Kräftig bitterer, trockener Abgang; längerer Nachtrunk. - Hefetrübes, kräftig gehopftes - und insofern einzigartiges - Kölsch. An den Klassiker Päffgen Kölsch reicht es trotzdem nicht ganz heran, dafür ist es ein wenig zu einseitig im Geschmack.

Orange/amber hazy colour with a medium compact head. Smell is hoppy with bready notes. Taste is dry, with a definite hoppyness, I would say also licorice. A nice beer.

Hazy light orange - thick, frothy lace - very tasty and interesting take on the style - full, frothy texture in the mouth - dry, toasty maltiness (a mixture and bready and crackery character) - light tangy acidity through the middle is followed by a mild balancing sweetness - moderate earthiness and crusty bread is followed by a complex finish of hop character (peppery character, moderate bitterness, tropical fruit) - my words are not really doing this justice, but this is one tasty beer - I love Freigeist!

Pour is a cloudy yellow with a large white head. Aroma is a bit of doughy malt with some grass and lemon. Flavor is pretty decent. Big chewy, creamy, yeasty malt with some grassy hop to finish things off. Very malt heavy for a lager style but they make it work. Not my favorite style but this is one of the better ones. I guess an un-filtered kolsch is the way to go.

Dobry kolsch, z bojna piana i przyznam ze pierwszy raz niefiltrowanego kolscha pilem. Przyjemne tresciwe, a jednoczesnie orzezwiajace. Piana naprawde spora i trwala. Mglistosc i metnosc porzadna. Skromna buteleczka kapslowana z jedna tylko etykieta.
