500ml bottle. Clear orangey golden colour with average firm frothy moderately lacing white head. Minimally sweet malty and fruity aroma has balanced tart, dry and sweet notes that remind of gooseberry, yellow currant and elderberry. Taste is fruity in the same way combining sweet, tart and bitter notes. Soft palate, a bit cautious and light bodied, but nicely balanced and drinkable.

Getrunken beim 1. BTO-Treffen. Dezent fruchtiger Geruch. Herbe Note, sehr süffig. Ein wunderbarer würziger Unterton ist ab dem Mitteteil präsent. Der Nachgeschmack passt zum Rest mit einem süßlich-malzigen Aroma. Wenn Kritik, dann ist es der leiucht grasige Ton im Mittelteil. Test vom 30.12.2006, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 9,11,13,11,13,12 - 11,60

Draught at the Stiefel-Jurgens Brewpub in Beckum. Sourish aroma and flavor. Again, I think it’s too old. Drinkable, anyhow, though not well defined. Not sure what it wants to be. Boring. Ah, it’s a Kolsch. That makes sense. Not a very good one, at least, not in good condition.

Draught @ Stiefel-Jürgens, Hühlstrasse 4-6, D-59269 Beckum, Nordrhein-Westfalen, Germany.
Clear light yellow color with a average, frothy, good lacing, mostly lasting, white to off-white head. Aroma is light moderate malty, toasted, white caramel - toffee, light hoppy, citrus. Flavor is moderate sweet and light to moderate bitter with a average duration. Body is medium to light, texture is watery to oily, carbonation is soft. [20081211]

bottle, thanks to MoritzF! Golden colour, decent head. Malty and fruity flavour, hints of apple and herbs. Well-balanced brew.

Bottle, 4.8%. The aroma is a bit fruity. Clear shiny golden colour, small white head. The flavour has a little plastic, which fortunately goes away quickly. Thin mouthfeel. Good bready aftertaste, but disappointing.

Bottle at the Düsseldorf Gathering. Clear, yellow body. White head. Good lace. Hoppy aroma. Quite watery flavour and as a matter of fact lacks any flavour at all. Just a tiny little bit sweet.

Yellow pour, strange aroma, like jbrus said veggie aroma, peas. A subdued brew, slight malt, some sweetness, lackluster flavor, very plain. tasted at Düsseldorf gathering.

Düsseldorf Gathering, Bottled. Sweet aroma with hints of veggies and chewing gum. Pale yellow color, white fine head, fair lace. Light sweet, light bitter, malty, also some veggies in the flavor, flat. Strange is probably the word for this beer.

Bottle, thanks a lot MoritzF! Strong hearher honey and berry aroma (raspberries and earthy strawberries). Golden, wonderfull champagne pearling carbonation, frothy layering head. Light (a little bit too much so IMO) grainy body, elegant aromatic hops, berries and heather again. Bitter earthy herbal finish. Best Kölsch from a bottle to date I think!
