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......

Bottle. Golden colour and a decent head. Hop, toast and flowery in aroma. Has a bitter heavily hopped flavour. Very dry and cardboard like. Not the best Kolsch I have tasted.
