2.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20
Draft - not much aroma. A touch of malt. Looks like an AS. Light bodied. A bit of malt and a spicy hop note that is unusual in the style. Good.
2.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20
On tap @ Four Peaks (flight). Pale clear yellow color with a small white head. Beer has a faint aroma of straw and grain. Light and fizzy with very little bready flavor. I can’t say it tasted like much of anything, though it was not offensive.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 13/20
Lord light golden with medium head that persists and leaves lots of pacing. Aromas of lemon, deer tea, and bavarian hops. Definitely a German beer.slightly sweet up from with mild bitterness that quickly overtakes. Chewy palate with soft carbonation. Very good. Although very different from other kolsch
2.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Sampled at CanFest 2011 in Reno. This is light even by kolsch standards. Not bad just pretty boring for this beer geek. Good cereal taste but lacking pizazz.
2.6 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Draft at brewpub. Pours nearly clear with a thin head which pretty accurately sums up the taste as well. Not my favorite style.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Yellow pour with creamy white head and lace. Aroma of light sweet malt and earthy hops. Paper, dry malt, and earthy hops. A bit thin and watery but refreshing.

3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
UPDATED: JUL 27, 2011 On tap at Four Peaks in Tempe. Crystal clear golden/yellow with a fine white head. Clean cereal/corn aroma. Good corn/light malt flavor with light honey/caramel sweetness. Slight sour aftertaste that’s nice here. Light earthy hop bitterness to balance the malt sweetness. Slightly creamy and could be a bit crisper for this style. Very refreshing, tasty and easy to drink.
3.5 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Poured up on tap at the Tempe Four Peaks with clear gold body and nice effervescent bright white head. The aroma offers up light notes of lemon, spicy hops an sugary sweet malts. The taste has pleasing fresh bright flavors with some lemon, spicy hops, bitter floral hops and then heading into some malt graininess. Nice crisp hot weather brew.
