Easygoing straw-hazed yellow-fruited springtime session beer stays refreshingly smooth. Thematic honey-glazed lemony tartness picks up mild orange rind bittering above delicate grassy-hopped mineral graining, picking up minor vegetal astringency to white wheat backbone. Briskly carbolic seltzer fizz helps keep things light and airy.

Sufficing updated, relabeled, yellow-hazed, German-styled Kolsch (circa 2011) betters previous Single Malt Lager version. Musty grassy-hopped lemon-rotted vegetal astringency upends dry wheat-husked pilsner malting, toasted white breading and slightest wood pining. Dirty earthiness consumes oncoming diacetyl spicing, awkward herbal trifle and latent metallic whim.

Honeyed grain toasting and candied citrus dollop top phenol-hopped sharpness and fresh-watered pleasantry. Mild butterscotch swoop and tart lemon custard snoop drape minor pineapple-peach tease. Sour-doughed white-breaded spine reminiscent of sweet moderate-bodied Munich pilsner.

Lifeless straw-yellowed German pilsner-like bantamweight retains highly carbolic Seltzer flow and mild citric tartness. Distant lemon-curried mandarin orange illusion peaks through phenol grassy-hopped placidity. Simply too plain and unassuming.

Obtuse clear-yellowed pearly-headed springtime ’10 moderation brings unexpected corn-dried barley-hopped bittering to mild fruit-soured rye breading. Lacks dominant sweetly soured fruitiness benefiting other kolsch beers. Citric-dried lemon-pitted iodine-tinged aftertaste may be off-putting.

Fair yellowed amber white-headed German Kolsch lager suffers from overt fizz, dank Eastern European soapiness, and sour fruited paucity caused by callow grainy earthiness.

Despite sexy long-legged blonde on label, this is some rough stuff. Musty Kolsch-styled ale retains dirty earthen dryness and sourdough undercurrent. Lousy lemongrass souring disrupts unripe orange bittering undercutting astringent white grape scour. Brewery defunct: 2010.

Light-bodied sunny disposition of subtle spiced hop bitterness, yellow fruit tang, and casual herbal influence stays more buttery smooth than less watery Pyramid’s Coastline Pilsner.

Arguably, the best American Kolsch beer. Mild grain pleasantry persists beneath lively fruited hops, revealing ripe banana, tangy grapefruit, brisk lemon, and white peach cadences for zesty moderate-bodied summer stylist. Honeyed wheat bottom picks up cornbread suggestion.

Murky fruit-wafted sourdough pungency overrides delicate sweet-spiced fizziness and floral-herbed restiveness softening easygoing pale-bodied moderation. Lemony apricot and banana trifle receives phenol hop restitution. Not far removed from a summer ale with its perky citrus spritz and passive wheat backdrop. Fine all-purpose brew for light-bodied thirsts.

Light-bodied Kolsch-styled dank fruitiness hangs around soft wheat strand as lemony flow builds and tamped down hops gain off-dry pep.
