Sampled on 3/19/2010. This Kolsch pours an orange gold color from a 22oz bottle. Medium sized white foamy head. The aroma is orange, caramel, fruity and sweet. A medium bodied Kolsch. The malts are fruity and sweet. The hops are floral. Nice carbonation. A touch malty for a Kolsch and seems to be missing that softer mouthfeel. Still a very drinkable lighter beer. Mouthfeel is full. Finish is clean and smooth. Aftertaste is slightly sweet.

I haven’t had much kölsch (many kolsches?), so maybe it’s just the style, but this is only ok for me. It’s light, relatively dry and there’s a very mild vinous quality to the malt, but I bet that there’s more than that to a great kölsch. I’d prefer a stronger vinous note and a richer malt flavor. The hopping is nice, but I always like Hallertauer hops. There’s an acrid flavor to the beer that prevents it from being good for a session for me.
