Not usually a fan of "light beers" but tried this. Poured a clear, slightly golden color. aroma of subtle hops and slightly medicinal. Taste is well, dull. Obviously for the masses. Cornish light body with a subtle hop flavor. I cant even discern anything distinct. Just, plain i suppose. Wouldnt order again.

A: Poured with an average-sized, white head that diminished to 1/2-finger. Body is light gold and completely clear.

S: Not much to the aroma... maybe some light citrus, but it's fairly weak.

T: Easy-drinking beer that is quite refreshing, with citrus notes balancing a bit of sweet malt. The finish has just a touch of bitterness to it.

M: Light-bodied with a slightly creamy texture, and average carbonation.

D: Nothing to blow you away, but a very refreshing beer to have in the summer... or in the winter, as I did... but it was definitely a decent beer to start the day with.

Clear gold not much head on the pour. Very little aroma - a hint ogf something herbal maybe. Lightly bitter with a floral note, and a little bit of citrus. Light body with a sharp carbonation - a bit too much I think. Otherwise, drinkable and refreshing, but that's it really.

On tap at the source...

Pours typical extra-light yellow - almost a chartreuse - for a Kolsch. Head a little thin - looks like a solid lawnmower entry.

Scent is style-neutral - faint hint of hops and grains but really there's not a whole lot here.

Something about the Kolsch style usually turns me off - maybe a little silage from the Saaz hops - but this one really didn't have much of that. Clean-drinking mildness and spriteliness expected from the style.

Palate feel is pretty much what you expect - clean, crisp...maybe slight bitterness on the finish but nothing blatant.

Good for a hot day - decent pint for style.

The nest beer I had an opportunity to try at The Clocktower. Golden pour with a small white head. Crisp aroma of light malts and a slight touch of citrus. Pleasing malty body is carried off with aplomb, and leans towards lighter malts, and reminds me of a maltier pils. Nice light bittering in the finish. The body is smooth, but also well carbonated. I was impressed by this beer and it slaked my thirst on a hot day.

Neutral aroma with a bit of cheesiness. Crowning head on golden yellow. Fizzy carbonation, and apple juice off-taste, with bitter and drying finish. Served to me almost warm. Altogether light and drinkable on a hot day, but nothing to write home about..
