What the brewers say

“A crisp, filtered Kölsch, brewed with all German ingredients.”

What our panel thought

“Brilliantly clear yellow color with a nice frothy white head. Light toast, grass, and light raspberry in the aroma and flavor. As it warms, a musty component appears. A mellow bitterness lingers into the dry finish.”

What our editors thought

“Slightly dusty nose with earthy herbal notes and a dried-yet-bright floral edge. Slightly sweet bready malt in the sip roughs it up against looser herbal bitterness, with a slight transmission lag as it shifts gears.”
