505 (271), Echo Park, California, USA Jul 31, 2006 Poiurs goldne orange with quickly fading nice head. Citrusy aroma and flavor, a little grainy. Decent, but not great beer. Refreshing in the season. cbkschubert (1945), Cochise Co., Arizona, USA Jul 21, 2006 Pours a clear orangish color with a light head that faded quickly. Light carbonation. Has light spicey, sweet maltly flavor and aroma. Has some grassy hop aroma also. It reminds me alot of the Dusseldorf strain of yeast I used in a past batch of home brew. Light to medium body. Its smooth and a little dry. Not bad. Worth a try HopheadHans (753), Bay Area, California, USA Jul 20, 2006 Bottle. Probably the best Summer beer I had this season. It pours golden with a ncie head. Aromas of orange zest and spices. Flavors of malts, spices and orange with a hint of hops. It is refreeshing but not watery and it is quite complex. I am not sure what makes it a Koelsch though. after4ever (2711), Brier, Washington, USA Jul 19, 2006 12-oz. Pours a dark yellow, slightly fizzy head, with thin occasional streams of carb. Another empty Alaskan nose--a little cardboard, maybe. Sour, white-sugar-y palate. A little watery. Cleand and drinkable, without a doubt. CarterHayes (32), Madison, Wisconsin, USA Jul 16, 2006 12 oz bottle, poured into pint glass. Head disappears quickly, what little of it there is. Quite carbonated, but not unpleasantly so, with a nice deep yellow color. Looks quenching. The mown grass smell isn’t bad either, especially if you’re having this after actually mowing the lawn. Since this is seasonal brew, I find the scent appropriate. Very light across the palette, slightly sweet but won’t become annoyingly so, even after a six pack. A solid session brew, especially during a BBQ on a hot day. Not Alaska’s best, but certainly nothing to be ashamed of. beachbum25 (778), Powellville, Maryland, USA Jul 2, 2006 22 oz Bomber-Trade w/after4ever Pours a nice clear golden color w/a small head. Sweet, grassy, citrus aroma. Light, malty, grainy, fruity citrus flavor. Long plesent, crisp, clean, malty finish. Definately a summer brew-very drinkable-would be a good summer session beer-good for outdoor activities. Good on a hot day-not sure how many they get in Alaska though! Headbanger (1574), Aurora, Illinois, USA Jun 30, 2006 22oz bomber- An aroma of citrus and light malt on a white head that dissipated quickly into a small lacing. A taste of fruit and grass. I’m not a big Kolsch fan but this is fairly light in body and watered down. Not a bad beer but definitely not Alaska’s best. Steib (574), Queen Creek, Arizona, USA Jun 29, 2006 Light straw color well carbonated. Sweet malt aroma, very grassy. A light grainy flavor. A little bitter and acidic. Mellow fairly smooth on the aftertaste. A quaffable beer nothing great.
