Canned. Golden colour with a mediumsized off-white head. Aroma is biscuity malts, some grain, floral and grassy notes. Flavour is sweet malts, quite crisp biscuity notes along with some grassy, herbal and mildly floral notes.

5 July 2019. At Dok Brewing Festival. Cheers to Anke & Ghent beer crew! Hazy golden-orange with a lasting, small, unstable, frothy, off-white head. Aroma of banana, white bread, yeast, honey, ripe apple, pear. Taste is light to medium fruity sweet, banana & apple on a bready-yeasty base, some bitter grass, a spicy touch, vague wheaty sourness leading to a dryish, grassy hoppy & grainy finish, lingering soft banana & bread. Medium body, slick texture, fizzy carbonation. Clean, correct, yet forgettable.

Attempted Kölsch by this small London craft brewery, tasted from tap at Dok Brewing Festival. Snow white, mousy, papery lacing, thinnish and bit irregular head on a misty golden beer with vaguely greenish tinge. Aroma of white bread and wheat flour, dried apple peel, unripe pear, camomile, grass. Neutral-ish onset with still some very low unripe pear and green banana sweetishness, medium carbonated, smooth cleanly white-bready and cereally maltiness, straightforward but clearly all-barley, ending in a mildly grassy hop bitterish finish, gently drying and a bit powdery. Very quenching beer, nowhere exaggerated as a typical Kölsch would indeed be, so far among the better attempts at ‘new’ Kölsch outside of the Cologne region in Germany that I had – though I see little use in trying to copy this beer style anywhere else than in Cologne, to be honest.

Fra fat på bryggeripuben. Stråfarget. Litt uklar. Høyt tett skum. Stabilt. Gressaroma. Myk munnfølelse. Smaken tørr malt. Litt karamell i ettersmaken.

(thanks for sharing!) Sampled draft @ The Beavertown Extravaganza 2017. Day 1. Orange, little white head. Nose is quite poor, spoiled plastic & off grain. Oily plastic wheat, off grain, sugar, heavy plastic, bread. Body is plastic baffling sweet. Quite a mess, how is this top 50 in the style.
