Indra (2023), Prairie Village, Kansas, USA Oct 30, 2008 16oz. draft. Aroma is full of sweet, crackery malts, faint touches of honey, flowers and perfumy hop. Sparklingly clear pale golden color with a slight greenish cast and a very fine head. On the flavor aspect, this is about the most authentic Kölsch I’ve had in this country, blending light, bready malt sweetness and crackery grains with mild hop bitterness and gently floral, spicy touches, finishing with a mild pear-like fruitiness and drying out a bit. Light, quenching mouthfeel, body is light as well. Good. Doppelganger (1353), Dry County, Arkansas, USA May 12, 2006 Pale straw with a small cap of fine white head. Light dill and fresh grass aromas. Gentle bitterness and a light warming toasted bread. Clean, bright and fresh. Generally not a style with much allure, but this shows off all the best points.
