This more traditional example will hit up the Kölsch hot spots you know and love. Straw colored, session liquid pulled from the bowels of our Cologne right here on Lincoln Ave.

On-tap at the tap room. Served in a 5oz taster.
A - White foam settles to a partial cap, collar, and splotchy lacework. Transparent golden blonde body, as a good Kölsch should be.
S - Yeasty blonde ale, with some nebulous earthy hopping. Come mild cereal grain sweetness mixed in for good measure. Not sure I would have guessed Kölsch here.
T - The taste is better, with a bit of the white grape character amid the toasted toasted cereal grains and nebulous fruitiness. Light floral hopping and no obvious bitterness.
M - Dry, grainy, medium-light body, with moderate carbonation. Pretty clean; doesn't linger on the palate. Refreshing.
D - OK beer that's not totally to style. Easy to drink, no serious problems, but largely forgettable.
