Canned 9/2/25, drunk 9/14/25.
Clear, honey-blonde. Large, well-retained, frothy, white head.
Nice and malty for a kolsch with proper yeast character (apple, paper, mild white pepper) and a snappy finish that is clean.
Apple and pepper side-by-side with white bread and honey-like malts. Very deep malts leaving it a bit sweeter, perhaps, than it should/could be to really make it ultra refreshing. But there's still a reasonable amount of crispness and light bitterness on the finish. Dries out nicely, as well, with a bland paper-like character that seems very authentic. In a world of kolsch's that are maligned for being too light and watery, this certainly takes it i the other direction.

Northford draught, 9/13/25.
Heavily hazy, blonde-copper-amber. Small, dense, off-white head.
Fruity without any heavy Galaxy astringency/chalk/spruce. But there's a good earthiness with mineral and round pine. Big berry and light melon behind it make for an odd, but not unenjoyable hop experience, and the malt is deep with honey and white bread balancing.
Soft, malty, very low bitterness with earthy, lightly dusty Galaxy showing light pine up front fading to berry, melon and succulent malt. It won't go down as my favorite hop experiment, but it's a quality-made beer, nonetheless.

Northford draught, 9/13/25.
As pictured.
Very fruity hops show mixed berry and light, freshly-cut grass. Light mineral and biscuit/dough to balance. Touch of honey. Very clean, low acidity.
Fruity with berries and mild citrus. Easygoing and bready with gentle malt sweetness. Low bitterness, but ample. Hop choice is interesting. Feels less like an Italian Pils, though, despite the hop flavor being strong and expressive. On account of the low bitterness and no pepper or herbal notes. Still delightful, of course.

Northford draught, 9/13/25.
Clear, dark copper-amber. Small, beige head.
Warm, toasted, buttery brown bread. Light honey as a base and low hop character with fruity yeast and mineral lingering.
Toasted acidity with fruity and grassy hops. Crusty, bready malt but ample soft, light caramel character to balance. Big textures and well-carbobated. Malt and yeast-forward, as it should be. Bready. Tastes like licking an old, crusty Englishman.

Northford draught, 9/13/25.
Bright marigold. Light haze, small head.
Soft, farm funk and good, but not sharp acidity. Just easygoing poop. Hay and rustic grains with heavy mineral and mild citrus accents.
Soft and with pleasing acidity and mild Brett/lacto fruitiness. Gently malty, strong attenuation and low oak. Citrusy acidity and honey-like malt lingering alongside nutty, mild oak tannin.

Undated can drunk 8/22/25.
Lightly hazy, muted lemon-brass. Big, clumpy, white head.
Soft and yet woody with vegetal and peppery notes. Lightly fruity yeast with floral notes on the finish. Doughy, biscuity malts. Good attenuation and clean, if rather muted overall.
Lemon, unripe pineapple and slight woodiness with black pepper and hints of floral notes. Kumquat lingering. Wheaty, chewy texture with high attenuation. Clean and simplistic without any bold or juicy hop notes.

Undated can drunk 8/17/25.
Clear, blonde-brass with a big, fluffy, white head.
Rich mineral, probably moreso than usual for the style, with good yeast quality and lots of herbal notes from the hops. Rich, honey and biscuit from the malt but ending properly snappy/crisp/clean.
Rich and malty with a big body for the style, though it isn't sweet. More doughy/biscuity. Strong sourdough and huge mineral with lingering herbal hop notes carrying a moderate amount of bitterness. Rich, flavorful, balanced and satisfying.

Canned 8/9/25 10:29am, drunk 8/17/25. Kent Falls: now adding the time it was canned, too. On non-hoppy stuff, even. As if these guys couldn't get any better!
Clear, honey-brass-golden. Bright, with a frothy, white head that slowly fades to rocky cover.
Yeast and mild oak with big mineral and fruity yeast showing restrained, unripe stone fruit and unripe apple. Adding some honey-like malt on the end with more fruity yeast gives an almost oak-aged applesauce character. Hints of vanilla and spice.
Soft but with a good oak tannin structure that keeps it from getting too soft. Fruity and mild, with a big drinkability and lots of maltiness. Ends dry with bright, but not-overdone, herbal and peppery hops. Lingering malt, vanilla, acidity. Maybe a touch lighter bodied than I'd prefer, if we are nitpicking, but this beer takes you to flavortown, for sure.

375 mL bottle drunk 6/1/25.
Clear honey-brass with little head.
Oaky, cidery, juicy with excellent acidity and long grape character. Rich malts and more wood on the end.
Oak and grape with big malts and a juicy acidity. Balanced and mildly funky with wild cidery notes. Very low carbonation giving some syrupiness. Really interesting and unusual.
