Ive never had a great Kolsh and this is no exception. Prety bland beer with a watery body and no head retention. There was however a nice buisquity taste to it with a mild amount of hops.

Bottle into a goblet. Dark yellow pour with next to no head. Taste is of hop and bitter, with a nice finish. Bitter is the best in the after taste.

Clear golden color. Some head, not much. Smell is malt, wheat, barley, yeast and citrus. Taste much the same. Not a familiar style, but definitely enjoyable.

golden with small head. looks like a fine beer, but that’s about as good as it gets. there’s a slight maltiness, but otherwise remarkably flavorless. i’ve had a lot better with other flying dog varieties.

Bottle. Sweet malty aroma. Clear golden yellow with a small off-white head. Light sweet malty flavor with a mild spicy bitter finish. Light body and carbonation.

Originally reviewed: 8/6/09. Poured into my stange glass a pale goldish yellow with a big bubbly white head on top. No retention, but leaves some lacing sticking on the glass. Smells grassy and a bit of wet hops and grains. The mouth is a bit thin and watery. Little carbonation play on the tongue. The flavor is mellow with some creamed corn, grass, and finishes with a hint of bitter bite. This is a very refreshing beer. I’d have this again. Great for the summer.

12oz. pours straw, quickly dissapating head. Faint zest in nose leading into similarly subdued flavor on a lightweight frame. Simple and easy drinking, nothing notable remaining in finish.

Pours light gold..aroma is slight lemon zest and water.. Not much.. Taste is good...very drinkable..goes down easy..like it

Botella de 355ml. Vaso de ½ Pinta. Saboreada en jun´11. Color dorado pálido. Espuma blanca y escasa corona. Sutil lúpulo y malteado moderado en aromas y sabores. Intermedio citric con bajo amrgor. Aguada en boca. Cuerpo lígero y carbonatación media. Bien equilibrada aunque en conjunto resulta aburrida. 355ml bottle. Pint glass. Enjoyed on jun´11. Pale golden color. White froth, thin crown. Subtle hoppy & mildy malty hues. Citric flavor with a low bitterness. Watery mouthfeel. Light body, medium carbonation. Well balanced beer but the overall results quite boring.

Very flavorful light ale that leaves a good taste in your mouth. Lemon hoppy notes, not too bitter.

bottled from Just Beer Association. Pas la meilleure de chez Flyong Dog, mais une bonne blonde
