Very nice kölsch, offering up a clean grain and floral sweetness against notes of apple and cut grass, followed by a touch of yeast and lemon and a crisp, floral finish with a smidge of lingering German green funkiness. Quite drinkable.

Can from Cork & Cask (2018) and bottle from Sainsburys (2026). Clear pale golden body with a thin white head. Lively carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of grass, minerals, grain, waxed lemon and white bread. Flavour of lemon, bready malt and a bitter, herbal hop finish. Thin body with a slick texture. Soft fizz. Subtle and refreshing. A tasty, moreish beer with a hoppy bite.

400ml draft at Fruh dis spat, in Trier, Germany. Pours a crystal clear yellow-gold color with a white head and good retention. Good lacing. Clean and bright malt aroma. Super smooth and clean lager flavor. Really refreshing and very chuggable. Light body. Delicious!

Tap at the brewhouse. Good gear. Nice hoppage. Very clean and not overly dry. Good bitterness in fact. The rye roll with cheese and onion was tremendous in here too. Shame about a couple of the mardy arsed staff though!

A classical German beverage, not so special, a lager on a better way, malty, bready, mineral, a bit watery, touch of honey at the final, classical hop, not bad and fully refreshing at all the time., 18.12.20, at Bonne-Espérance, Lausanne, with Guillaume and.family.

Pours clear gold with a one finger head. Smells of grainy malt and a hint of lemon. The flavor is of grainy, bready malt and very mild hops. It’s clean and not bad at all, but it doesn’t bring a lot to the table.
