aracauna (2649) - Georgia, USA - JUL 20, 2006
Yellow body with slight haze. Wispy head. The malt lacks the straw punch of some of the better kolsches, but it has fragrant, musky hops to make up the difference.

Norton (312) - Southside, Richmond, Virginia, USA - FEB 15, 2004
Draft. Pale gold hue, minimal head. A tiny bit cloudy. Very crisp. Slightly floral/bready. Unbelievably dry aftertaste; indetectable hops. This brew is like a souped up version of any macro-light.
