Bottled. Yellowish golden colour, not much head. Aroma is hayish, salty and malty. Flavour is malts, earth and hops. Some salty notes also noted. Not too exciting Kölsch.

Draught (in Bonn, its original home): Golden coloured, quite stable fluffy head; grainy, fruity and slightly metallic nose with an illusion of bitterness; light dry bitter flav, light bodied to watery; very short fruity-bitter finish. A quite hoppy Kösch, not the worst example of this a bit boring style......
