| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | May 31, 2009 Nice beer. I’ve only ever tasted one other Kolsch from Cologne, so I don’t have much actual experience to go on. Poured with a nice white head that mostly fades and no lace. Color is a bright yellow gold. Aroma is a slightly spicy, fruity, hoppy, and beery. Flavor’s about the same; slightly bittersweet. I do pick up a faint hint of metallic others have noted. Almost a soft body. Good clean finish. Excellent session beer. Fred82 (408), Montreal, Quebec, Canada
| 3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 2/5 | 12/20 | May 28, 2009 500ml bottle from SAQ. Poured real clear and brilliant yellow. with a medium fluffy white head. Aroma is light skunk, quite malty and fresh. Bit metallic. Head retention is quite small. Small lacings. Aroma is not bad. Taste is quite discrete. Quite watery. A tiny hint of citrus. Mouthfeel is quite flat. Overall th beer is ok. really refreshing but nothing really special. I was told that this was not a good example of the Kolsh style so I hope one day I will have a nice one !

| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | May 25, 2009 I tried quite a few Kolsch while in Cologne, however this was my least favorite. They all pour clean and clear, a very crisp style of beer. This one had a strange hint of something in the aftertaste. A bit metallic or a weird fruit? Not sure but didn’t enjoy it was much as the others. rodenbach99 (710), Longueuil, Quebec, Canada

| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | May 17, 2009 Bottle from Zekes in Miami. Yellow pour with a brght white head. Aroma has the as expected malt but the surprise was some nice hops on the nose. Flavor is watered down, but the hops are noticeable. I guess this is an ok beer for the style. One that I don’t really like a lot. It is what it is I guess.
