Commercial Description:
Kenzinger is a quenching golden session ale that boasts a European birthright while displaying a certain Philadelphia sensibility. Kenzinger is crisp and smooth enough to refresh, but with a spirited, unforgettable flavor that delivers 100% of recommended daily taste bud stimulation. Brewed with pure pilsner malts, light on the bittering hops but loads of hop flavor and aroma; Kenzinger is bound to be your new standby.

Bottle. Gold pour with 2-finger white head. Nose has mild notes of honey, hopcitrus, and honey. Tastes on the watery side, with some hopcitric tartness and some slightly astringent pale malt notes. Forgettable.

Pours a clear golen yelow with thin white head. Aroma and flavor quite bland. Crisp and easy to swallow but nothing about the flavor stands out. Not as hoppy as advertised.

Bottle. Pale golden-yellow body with a clean white head. Odd briny aroma with a note of yellow mustard. The wild ride continues as fish tones emerge in the flavor. Smooths out a bit after the senses adapt. Some notable spicy hop flavors plus sweet doughy malt form the base here. But a strange grainy, phenolic quality is supplying the off characters. I really, really wanted to like this. But it just ain’t happening.

Bottle, which is sleek and hip. Pours nice copper color with medium lacing. The beer is nice but like the others has a dull earthy aftertaste that I can’t put my finger on. It is however a good session ale that I wouldn’t turn down if offerred.

Bottle: pours a clear, golden amber color with a frothy white head, aroma is sweet and also a little yeasty, bitter, hoppy flavor, thin mouthfeel, a nice session beer.

On Tap: Little to no head to speak of. I didn’t detect much of an aroma from the beer. Taste wise it was good with some nice hop flavor along with some yeast. Very good lawnmower beer.

[Draft @ Ray’s "Happy Birthday" Bar] Poured a lightly hazy golden color with a small, white head that left light lacing on the glass. Aroma of toasted malts, light toffee, citrus fruits, and a bit of floral hops. Taste was crisp, with toasty dough, pils malt, light citrus fruits, toffee, and a lemon rind finish.
