Seems almost illegal drinking a Kolsch outside of Koln! Clear and golden with a frothy/bubbly white head and a semi-sweet bready, fruity aroma. Fresh and clean, sweeter than the aroma suggests, light sugary biscuit malt prevails with some subtle grasys notes pulling through into the finish

On tap at Gilden im Zims, pours a clear piss yellow with a small white head. Aroma is gentle, with some graininess and straw. Flavour is fairly neutral and light, with gentle straw and subdued grass. Finishes crisp, crackery and dry, with very gentle bitterness. Pleasant enough — about standard for the style in the city centre.

On tap at Brauhaus Sion, pours a clear piss yellow with a large white head. Aroma is crisp, with straw and some metallic notes. Flavour is clean and crisp, with very light grassiness. Nothing wrong with it but not one of the better kolschs.
