This
take on the kölsch style showed up pale yellow-gold and mostly clear,
with a thin cap of off-white head. It had a charming aroma that was both
grainy and fruity. The flavour toed that same line, with some soft
grain notes cohabiting with a peachy element. The beer culminated with a
snappy, dry finish that had some modest hops crackle.
The
idea of a dry-hopped kölsch-style ale seems like a strange bird--and to
choose a juicy hop like mosaic, instead of a pinier option seemed like
an odd choice--but the folks at Sawdust City clearly know their craft
(beer), because this stuff was treat. I found it too thin, even for a
kölsch-style, but the flavour combination was genuinely enjoyable.
Rating: 8.0 out of 10.
