3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Gold/yellow pour with white head. Paper dominates aroma with some perfumy hops. Light maltiness followed by a very light perfumy bitter. Light bodied.

decent little kolsch, drinks really easy, not offensive at all, just mot much there. pleasant malt profile. carb is a little large on this.
1.4 AROMA 1/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 5/20
Pale yellow pour, not much head. No aroma. Not much flavor to speak of, but it tastes better than miller lite! I don’t see how they can compare this to a Kolsh, this is an American light lager. If I;m gonna drink water I’d rather go with PBR.
1.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 1/5 OVERALL 5/20
Poured into a pint glass.
4.0 A: Clear golden yellow color. First pour gave about three fingers of white frothy head with pretty good retention and some spotty lacing.
3.0 S: Cider and cotton candy. I can’t say I hate the aroma, but I don’t think this is what they were going for. It’s rather one dimensional and goofy.
2.5 T: Kinda taste like nothing. Slightly vinous and the cotton candy makes a slight appearance again. Hops are basically null and void.
1.5 M: Super light body with an unreasonable amount (on the high end) of carbonation.
2.0 D: This isn’t the greatest style and it’s hard to make a good one, but this brew doesn’t even come close. Hops are nowhere to be found and malts are simple and weak.
Serving type: bottle

Served from tap into a standard pint. Pours a pale yellow with a one finger white head that subsides to minimal. There was nice lacing evident throughout. The aroma was comprised of light malt and an earthy note. The flavor was of malt and nutty notes. It was light on the palate with low carbonation. Overall this was not a bad brew. It has been one of my favorite lighter beers that I have had. It is worth trying if you enjoy light brews.
3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 14/20
Hazy orange pour with tiny white head. Scent is grassy and bready. Taste is surprising, kinda bready flavor and crisp. More carbonation than I like.Not bad.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Appearance: Pours out an essentially clear, gold body with a small-sized, fizzy, white head.
Smell: Extra pale malts with a hint of clean graininess. Spicy, floral hops, though these notes are quite light.
Taste: Simple graininess and sweet are my initial impressions. Like a Dixie Crystals sugar packet has been added. Oh, wait, there’s only 119 calories, so, let’s say ½ a packet of sugar. A thin trace of floral, spicy hops and bitterness to round things out. Drying, though very thin finish.
Mouthfeel: Light-bodied. Medium carbonation.
Drinkability: Fine for a light, not so great for a Kölsch. If nothing else, it does offer a bit more than the Budmilloors options.
2.1 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
Bottle pours semi-golden color with white head. Aroma is slight sweet brown sugar and grain. Mouthfeel is stinging from the high carbonation and is a bit thin. Flavor is light astringent grain and finishes dry. I’ve had several kolsch beers. I’ve even homebrewed one and this doesn’t come close to tasting like the style at all. Its more like a cross between a bud and a kolsch light.
