On tap (keg) @ Beer Temple. Pale blonde color, clear. Dense white head, good lacing. Aroma’s: fruit, grassy, grain, with some malty sweetness added retronasal. Flavor is lightly maltsweet with hints of fruit. Light bodied. Flavor has retention, but no new flavor. Not bad for a Kölsch.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20 ElDesmadre (944) - Mikołów, POLAND - MAY 14, 2013
Bottle. Very floral, slightly citrusy aroma and flavour. Light body, hoppy taste, some bready notes in the bone-dry, light bitter finish. Good beer but not on the same level as the best German kolsch beers.
2.9 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20 Modjibe (5) - - MAY 11, 2013 does not count
Pas caractéristique d’une véritable kolsch, pas spécifique, assez peu aromatique. Marketing

Poured straw with a small white head. Aroma of zesty hops. Medium body, flavour is quite bland, sweet caramel malt and generic hoppiness. Lacking the body of a true Kolsch, far closer to a standard lager.

(Draught at Craft Beer Co Brixton, London, 27 Apr 2013) Yellow colour with brief, white head. Malty, fruity nose with notes of peaches, citrus and white bread. Malty, fruity taste with citrus, white bread, wheat-flour dough, peaches and a mild, grassy bitterness. Medium body, with a certain sweetness. Refreshing, but taste is a bit doughey. Decent kölsch.
