Reissdorf Kölsch

Brewed by Privat-Brauerei Heinrich Reissdorf
Style: Kölsch
Köln, Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany

light golden color, thin head, suprice! a very fine kölsch,

Bottled. Clear, light golden with a noisy white head. Strong malty and hoppy aroma. Has qualities of a Helles (pale malt breadiness) but also a latent fruitiness. Crisp and refreshing. Very good balance between sweetness and bitterness. A little oily. Dry end. Good Kölsch!

11.2 ounce purchased at the Brick Store Pub. It had a very malty aroma, but the taste was balanced out well with some crisp citrus hops. It was a very drinkable and refreshing beer.

A nice light crispy beer for the enjoyment of summer. Has a nice light malty taste with a sublt bouquet of grass like hops. Great for the summer quencher

Bottle. Nose and flavor has a bit of a witbier resemblance. Some decent semi-sour wheat and grain scents, crisp and light flavor, full of wheat and mild spices... strikingly different from the more traditional kolsch in town.

The aroma is sweet and malty with some grassy hops but not much. The appearance is pale gold with a medium head. The flavor is malty and light with some citrus and corn. The palate is thin. Overall its easy to drink but nothing spectacular.

Pours bright pale golden yellow w/ a full spritzy froth. Hangtime is short lived and residual lacing is minimal. Aroma is slightly herbacious w/ lemon rind fruit and malt. Light nectar w/ ample residual effers. The texture is slightly milky. Nice. Flavors are delicate w/ perfumy malt and round mellow fruit. Crisp and clean with a nice mild bittering on the finish. Highly recommended.

Poured with a nice head that lasted and laced well. Appearance was a nice dark golden / light amber color. Mouthfeel was definitely carbonated. The flavor was light and refreshing with a nicely hopped touch. The finish is dry. An excellent summer choice of a beer and one that makes me think more positively about the kolsch style.
