Tap in the hotel bar in Cologne prior to heading out into the Saturday evening madness. Decent looker overall and very refreshing. Decent hop character and got smashed in about two gulps.

On tap at Cafe de Zaak, El Arenal in Majorca, Spain. A golden coloured pour with a decent white head on top. Vaguely bready, malty, some citrus fruit. Not a memorable kolsch but just about OK in the heat.

Bottle brought by houseguests, thanks Daniel! Light haze, yellow amber, grainy nose with spicy hops and a hint of malt. A bit of astringency, pretty malt-ish on the tongue. It's mildly hopped, earthy, big grain, alright beer and easy drinking.
