Commercial Description:
Kolsch, the clean and refreshing beer style of Cologne, Germany, quenches summertime thirst. This pale golden ale with a lightly fruity aroma is cold-conditioned or lagered after its primary fermentation. More simply, our Summertime uses only the finest malts and German hops to create the perfect beer for hot Summer days and warm Summer nights.

Traded bottle. Clear, light gold colour with a small white head and a little lacing. Aroma is buttery with some malt and barn straw. Flavour is bready with a nice mouthfeel. Nothing exciting but fine.

Bottle, 12 fl. oz. Pours a pale yellow beer with a white head. The aroma is weak with fruits and banana. The flavor is likewise weak with banana. The palate is fresh and overall an average beer.

Bottled. A golden beer with a thin beige head. The aroma is light with notes of malt and bread. The flavor is sweet with light notes of malt and straw, leading to a lightly bitter finish.

The flavors tasted like a spash or orange juice was added (coriander?) and the beer was pretty chunky. It was a bit too sweet. I would not recommend this if you like a traditional Kolsch, but then again, maybe my batch was bad.

Bottle. Pours a slightly hazy golden color with a thin white head that quickly disipates. Coriander and yeasty aroma. Malty and fruity flavor with a mild bitter finish. Creamy texture with fizzy carbonation. Nothing fancy, just a smooth, easy drinking brew.

Botella. Unclear pale yellow colour, medium fairly well alsting white head. Aroma has some fruitiness with wheat and yeast. Fair mouthfeel. Strange wheat and grainy, mildly fruity, bit herby flavour with a bit of lemon and a mild bitterness.
