Beer poured from a bottle into a pint glass. Pours golden yellow with a small white head. Smells of sweet barley with slight banana. Tastes of sweet grain with some banana and berries. Beer is light bodied, nicely carbonated, and very refreshing. Overall, an above average beer.

Something just tastes a little off with this kolsch. A little bitter/metallic and missing sweet bready, grassy notes I usually like to find in my German ales.

Pours clear, bright yellow with 1/2 head and high carbonation. Taste is light honey, with barky hops and grassiness. Above average, easy drinker. Not bad, but I do prefer others in the style.

I'll admit to not being a huge fan of kolsch's. Especially when their names are misspelled on this website (Kolsch is spelled with a "C" after the "S"). Don't bother with this one, folks.

Purd into a .25L kölsch glass. 2cm grayish white head melted down to a thin smearing. Clear golden cream color like a bud almost. Smells like earthy malt and a basement o_O. Virtually tasteless up front. The earthy oaky pale malt flavor arrives mid way, and it finishes with the taste of licking witch-hazel off a stain glassed window; some copper. Crisp up front, smooth dissipating wash, minimally bubbles at the end. Overall not bad. Probably wouldn't buy an entire sixer again. Would try a draught though.
edit tried on draft. Frsh. Much better.
Must and basement copper werent present.
More bubbles. Cleaner malt. Yum.
Upfrade a few points.
