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.

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.

Pale yellow, rather watery looking. Slightly tart in aroma and taste. Just enough taste to let you think you are drinking a micro brew.

Pours a clear light yellow/golden color. Aroma of yeast, lemon and grain. Very light on flavor. I can hardly discern a taste. Perhaps citrus with a slight grain at the end. Easy drinking, but not much flavor.

Draught at the Ginger Man, NYC on 25th July 2009. Pale, hazy gold with mostly diminishing white foam. Refreshing, lightly hoppy; slight fruits on the nose, all delivered on a fizzy textured mouthfeel with some clinginess on the roof of the mouth.

33 cl bottle, Fargo, ND, USA. Slightly hazy pale yellow colour, foamy head. Bready and citrus aroma, sour lime first sip that spreads through the mouth, almost chalky texture. Very drinkable - someone should turn all the bud-light-lime drinkers on to this.
