330 ml bottle, Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. ABV is 4.9%, 22 IBU. Fairly clear pale golden colour, moderate white head. Fruity and floral aroma. The flavour is more herbal than fruity, has a slight sweetness and yeastiness first, and ends rather dry with a more pronounced bitterness than expected from 22 IBU. Well, when I buy a Kölsch I normally have no other expectations than being refreshed, and this one does the trick.

Cerveza dorada de cuerpo y carbonatación media. Aromas débiles herbáceos y cítricos. Sabor levemente dulce con un final seco.

This is a golden straw colored Kölsch style Lager. It has a light sweet aroma and pours with little head (crappy hotel cup). The flavor is crisp and and slightly bitter with a clean finish. It’s a medium carbonation beer that leaves little lace. I would definitely enjoy this with bbq, tacos, or even white fish. Wish I had bought a couple of extra to bring home!

From Decervecitas. In Teku glass. Playing Life is Strange Before the Storm. 8 months after bbf and still fairly fine. Very malty, strawy, with grassy hops and a truly german character. Ultradrinkable. Light oxidation that doent seem to spoil it but instead may even improve it

Clear golden colour, big head, long retention, fades to a thin lalyer. Normal lace.
Aroma is floral, oranges, caramel, cloves.
Medium to full body, creamy texture. Too much carbonation.
Taste of oranges, cloves, caramel. I would rate it higher if it wasn´t for the excessive carbonation.

Bottle at home. I drank it straight from the bottle, so no idea how it looks. Funky smell like boiled cabbage, brussel sprouts, boiled malts. Bitter-sweet and with a metallic sensation in the background.

Reviewed 7/20/2016 from notes. Twelve-ounce bottle purchased at Pantori gourmet food shop in San Sebastian.

Golden color, absolutely crystal clear, 1 finger of bone white foam. German lager aroma, hints of crisp hops and malt, very inviting on this hot day in the Basque Country. True to style kölsch taste. Effervescent, medium mouthfeel, carbonation perfect. Overall, a very good, spot-on kölsch. Great pairing with the Bidassoa Kaspar (another kölsch) I drank next.
