Reissdorf Kölsch

Bottle - pours a clear golden yellow with a thin white head. Aroma of wheat, banana, spice, and hops. Taste is fruity, clean, wheaty and bicuity. Nice, refreshing beer that is great for drinking on a hot day. Nice Kolsch.

Like a well-made and genuine Kolsch, tastes like a quality Pilsener without the hoppy bite, but with a clean and smooth finish. Kolsch is probably the best summer beer to drink.

Clear pale gold. White head. Fresh grains, malted grains, cereal and bitter, mildly earthy hops. Clean, dry finish. Medium to medium/light body, balanced carbonation. Very easy to drink. I could drink a ton of this. Great session beer. Just wish it was $10/6pk instead of $10/4pk.

16 oz bottle. Golden straw colored pour with a small head. Large bubbles and mild carbonation. Taste of hay and malt. Mild light finish. Very enjoyable.

Bottle. A clear, straw-colored beer topped by a small, white to off-white head. Rather fruity on the nose, leaving the pale malts in the background. Quite grassy too, with some peppery hop notes way behind the other aromas. Fruity, straw flavor with a good addition of pale malts. Some slightly peppery hops gives a weak but appropriate bitterness, cleaning the palate nicely. Crisp, quenching and mediuim-bodied. A bit sweet finish maybe, where the bitterness are left too much in the back. Kölsch is a hard style to brew, and even though this is not the best of the locals, it’s a pretty good and quenching one. 091008

16.9oz bottle. Pours a clear pure golden body with a medium sized white head. Weak aroma of grass, straw with some faint citrus. Medium bodied, crisp, creamy mouthfeel. Flavor is mainly malty with a grainy grass finish. Not much going on here, which is what I expected. Overall an easy drinking relatively tasty beer.

12oz bottle 10/1/09 (Sam’s Wine & Spirits)-Pours a clear golden with a small white head and an aroma of malt, grains, and hops. Taste of the same with a bit more grass and hops. This light bodied beer is very well balanced and quite tasty.

Bottled 50cl. Clear pale golden. Very strong on the apple and gooseberry component. Hints of naphtalin and soy sauce. Waxy. Slightly reminiscent of a Berliner Weisse. An interesting and distinct Kölsch.
