Tap at BH; backlog. Pours hazy orange, medium creamy beige head, dissipates slowly, good lacing. Light aroma, orange peel, tangerine, pine, green tea. Light sweet, light plus bitter, citrus peel, biscuit malt. Light plus body, soft mouthfeel. I am generally not a huge fan of fresh hop beers due to the leafy tea notes imparted, and this is no exception.

Tap at BH. Pours slightly hazy golden, large off-white head, creamy and slow to dissipate with good lacing. Aroma is bread, grass, lemon, dust. Flavor is light sweet, lemon tea, grain, a hint of acetic tartness. Light body. A tad odd. Certainly not a very good attempt at recreating the Kolsch style, but not terrible on its own merits.
