Tap at Hellers, Koln, 26/04/13. Clear pale yellow with a decent sized white head. Nose is pale malts, light citrus, grass. Taste comprises pale malts, light biscuit, touch of orange, grain, grass, citrus. Medium bodied, light spritzy carbonation, crisp and dry in the execution. Ok stuff but lower down the pecking order than the first 3 Kolsch’s on our tour of Koln.

Half-litre flip-top: best before May 2013, poured into a ’Gaffel Kolsch’ glass three times @ home on 16 Nov 2012. Typical Kolsch look: clean, clear and golden, large white head which tries to stay around on each pour (not your typical Kolsch really then, because the head usually buggers off before I’ve even seen it!). The nose and taste are semi-sweet biscuity malty with hints of cereal and hops. No great flavours here, but when do you get those in a Kolsch? I don’t dislike the style: there is nothing to dislike, I just wish the delicate flavours would grow some balls one day and surprise me! This is just above your average Koln brew in my eyes, more for it’s head than flavours to be honest.

Bügelverschlußflasche (Dank an Roman!): Clear, golden, relatively quickly collapsing loose white head; buttery - with pale malt - and hoppy nose; moderate to solid bitter-sweet flavour, medium bodied and soft; lingering hoppy and malty finish. What a fine Pils........
