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.

Bottled at Monk’s Café, Stockholm. Lightly hazy pale golden, small head. Almost neutral nose. Fairly light bodied dense and somewhat sweet. Fruity with some cereals. The short fruit flavour quickly fades out into slight metal. More bland/fruity than refreshing.

Bottle at GBBF08. Weak fruity aroma. Clear shiny golden colour. Small white head. The flavour has a little caramel but is quite light. A little rough bitterness in the finish.
