Draft at the source. Clear amber color, small white head. Aroma of caramel. Taste is plain caramel. Average.

Draft. Pours gold with a white head. Grainy malty aroma with light floral hops. The flavor has flowery hops, grainy malts, and a light sweetness. Not bad.

Tap, part of a sampler at this brewpub. And I did partake in a pitcher of this after the sampler was exhausted. A great Kolsch! Probably among the best I have had, pours light and clear with no carbonation, aroma is sweet flows through to the taste which is also sweet. Palate has a nice milky texture that was somewhat surprising to me. I liked this one!

on tap-pours a dissipating white head and yellow color. Aroma is grassy, grain. Taste is grassy (saaz) hops, grain. OK/mild carbonation.

Golden color with a slightly tart, malty aroma with a bit of citrus detectable. Flavor is lightly malty, heavy with citrus and a nice tanginess. Not bad for a style that rarely does it for me.
