3.8 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
This was a nice surprise! My first Kolsch...
aroma is awesome, apples and pineapple, and some other fruity smells. Looks like carbonated apple juice with a tiny head. Nice fruity taste, mild hops, a little sweet. Surprisingly good.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Pours clear gold with a bright white head. Light wheat bread aroma with a bit of spice.
3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle: Poured a golden with white fluffy head. Aroma is fruit and wheat. Taste is smooth with sweet grain and wheat, nice glowing clove to give it a nice edge. Soft fruitiness in the finish.
2.4 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
Clear yellow and thin with a small white run for a head. Weak aroma of a hop or two. Tastes like a pale lager with only slightly more flavor than an American macro. The only good thing about the appearance are the numerous bubbles drifting quickly to the top of the pour. Its a little sweet has a decent bite, but that’s ruined by the sweetness. The beer comes off heavy despite having a thin, runny consistency.
3.4 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Bottle. Pours a cloudy golden with a small frothy white head. The aroma is Citrus and wheat. Thin mouthfeel with a sweet hop and wheat flavor with nice crisp finish. Easy to drink a very good Kolsch from Alaskan.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Clear and golden with a small, but fairly resilient white head. Aroma of bread and light grass and citrus. Taste is bready and crisp with a light bitterness. Light bodied and refreshing. Pretty good light summer beer.
2.8 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 11/20
Pour from the tap a golden yellow color with not much of a head. The nose is hard to detect. The taste is bread with a dry finish an medium mouth feel. Ok, but like saint Arnold's Kölsch better.

3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Pours Clear gold with a small white fizzy head. light malt aroma and a slightly sweet crisp clean taste. Finishes a little dry.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Pours clear gold with a tiny ring of white foam. Aroma of breakfast pastries, grain, sourdough bread, not much hop presence. Flavor of dough, bread crust, earth, and grass. Finishes earthy with a slight peppery tang that doesn;t last very long. Nearly light bodied with a very bubbly carbonation, but the mouthfeel is kinda sticky. Some good flavors are present here and I’d have the beer again, but it’s not a special example of kolsch (then again, I can’t think of one I just LOVE).
