Bottle Pours pale yellow with a white head. Malty aroma with grain, grass, and hops. Light citrus even. Medium body. Flavor is sweet clean malt, grain and a short and light hoppy finish. Not bad, your average, extremely drinkable kolsch.

Jul 2, 2008 Bottle from Court Square Tavern in Charlottesville. Golden amber with a thin, quickly disappearing head. Grass and skunk aroma. Slightly bitter and very sweet taste that is slightly corny. Soft mouthfeel and low carbonation.

does not count  Jun 27, 2008 1/2 litre bottle from The Vineyard (Belfast, Ireland) , poured in a Leffe 1/2 pint goblet. Light golden colour, small amount of coarse head, induced with a dribble pour. Aroma is very noticeable, uric and not pleasent to my nose. Light and quenching with a little bitterness towards the end. Slightly metallic, iron-rich in the mouth. Having just enjoyed a St Bernardus Prior 8, this paled in comparison.

Jun 23, 2008 16.9 oz bottle from Sam’s Wine (South Loop, Chicago, IL). Poured a fairly transparent golden hue with a substantial bright white head that dissipates at a moderate rate. Aromas are slightly skunky grain and a light floral sweetness. Taste is similar with an inviting initial taste and a bit of a bitter bite middle that smooths out in the finish. I realize the Kolsch does not travel well, but this was still enjoyable, flavorful, and refreshing. I tasted no adjuncty corn as some raters have indicated.
