The Kölsch is our flagship brand and our lightest offering. This beer was patterned off of the traditional German Kölsch that where produced in the city of Koln. Traditionally, this beer was brewed using a portion of the grain as wheat instead of barley. This beer is perfect for those experimenting with craft beer for the first time. The aroma is that of cereal grains with a light floral note at the end. Upon drinking, the flavors subtly take over the mouth leaving very little bitterness. There is a noticeably sweet taste that appears just before the carbonation cleans the palate.

Clocktower has long been a constant of mine. They make a whole lineup of sold beers without any real bad ones in the bunch. I would rather have a brewery that makes a solid lineup than one that works on crafting a couple of standouts, and as a result others suffer (I’m looking at you Beau’s). Unfortunately, this is the beer that Clocktower took a miss on. Pale gold in colour with a weak bubbly head. Aroma is grass, some earthy hops, and some weak acidic notes. Flavour is very weak, an almost watered down sensation. One to avoid.

Pint has an inch thick of creamy head, with a dark golden copper colour. Medium carbonation. Prett dirty lacing. Aromas are light malts. Flavours are sweet, citrus tartiness. Well balanced hops and malts. A bit grassy. Stronger orange taste. Mouthfeel is creamy and malty. More hoppy in the finish. Easy drinking any time kinda brew. Above average light beer.

On tap at the Byward Market in May ’09. Good sweetness, light bread, not much else for aroma. Light gold, clear, meh. Very thick for a kolsch, very thick and rich but I don’t care. Bready sweetness, warm apple pie (very mild one). Nice light carbonation, almost medium bodied, sweet malt finish. Not sure at what point I was fairly toasted...

A Fairly interesting brew. Reddish golden apperance and a bit of white head. Good attack but a slightly bitter aftertaste. Smooth tricking into the bitterness in fact. Okay beer.

Poured a golden colour with slight amber in it. The head was white and did not have much retention, nor lacing. Good fruity nose, specially light fruit, with undertones of grapefruit. Nice smooth taste with a grainy finish and some bitterness. Also, mild fruitness was found in the aftertaste, with some grapefruit and grain malts. Kind of creamy mouthfeel. Great session brew that was refreshing with a nice pleasant taste.
