Clear gold with a rich white head. Nice grainy notes. Soft grains and a touch of honey.

Golden coloured, small white head. Aroma is grainy, light bitterness. Taste is ok, maybe more lager like than kolschy. Not so much creaminess. Wheaty and grainy. Dry. Preferred the Alt.

Tap at the brewpub. Poured a clear golden colour with a thin broken white head. The aroma is light gluey malt, corn, light hop. The flavour is moderate bitter, with a light, crisp, metallic, yeasty, light floral hop bitter palate and a lingering bitter finish. Medium bodied with average to soft carbonation.

On tap at the brewpub. It’s a soft opaque gold with a solid head of creamy looking foam. It’s cool drinking it with the a/c, peaceful Japanese music, quiet of the empty restaurant while enjoying the view of the big copper tanks. Served in a glass similar to a stange. Bready, sweet, lightly fruity, mild graininess. Quite an active round-to-sharp carbonation. Served too cold but today is beastly hot (35C or so?) so I don’t mind that much. The taste is a bit rough, initial bitter earthy hit, sweet light malts and some fruitiness. A crisp refreshing dry finish. I like it though it is pretty average, if I had this anywhere other than the brewpub it’d probably have a lower rating, set & setting...

Draught @ the brewpub. Rated on 12.09.2011
Aroma is fresh with grain and some slightly sweet malt. Flavour feels a bit like bulk lager. It is a bit grainy and feels starchy. Sweet finish with corn and hops. Pretty basic and rather boring Kölsch.

Draught at the brewpub. Slightly dark gold color for the style, creamy head. Aroma of fruitys, honey, butter. Spicy, slightly sweet flavor; buttery, fruity. A bit too much butter and fruit for the style, but not bad. Nicely bitter finish. Good hopping, also more than usual for the style. Very dry finish. Pleasant enough though not fascinating.
