UPDATED: AUG 4, 2021 Bottle at home in Hackney - picked up from HOTM. Pours clear yellow-gold, lightly effervescent, with a frothy, pure white head. Lightly sweet, a little bland and papery, some cereal flakes, light bitter hay. Light bodied with average carbonation. Fairly clean in the finish, more crispy cereal grains. Drinkable but nothing special.

UPDATED: JUL 17, 2021 Früh Kölsch 0.0%. Pale golden, honey aroma, light bodied, pale malt, honey, corn. Lovely AF Kölsch from Cologne 🇩🇪

UPDATED: JUN 27, 2021 27/6/2021. Bottle from WiseBartender.co.uk. Pours clear pale gold with a small short lasting white head. Aroma of malt, grass. metallic, cardboard, stewed veg. Moderate sweetness with light bitterness. Light body, watery texture, above average carbonation. Some increasing bitterness to finish. Not really an AF highlight.

UPDATED: MAY 14, 2021 Bottle 0.33l at Taverno Willi Becher, Amsterdam, The Netherlands. 13.5.2021. Pour it clear golden color with small white head. Aroma light buttery note, popcorn. Taste as well, light straw, buttery, sweet corn note, fizzy carbonation.

UPDATED: APR 2, 2021 From the fridge. Crisp, mostly wheat. Works well without alcohol. Bit sticky. Not going to be a favourite.

UPDATED: AUG 18, 2020 Bottled, 330ml from Beer Hawk, Weatherby, Yorks.N. Gold with short head. Took a punt on this because it was cheap and had already tried their standard Kolsch. Thin, slightly metallic flavours from the start. There is quite a sharp grassy flavour, herby, sweetish malts. Lacks any depth. Not a great low alcohol beer.

UPDATED: APR 30, 2020 330ml bottle. Clear gold, seperated white bubbles. Lightly sweet grain on the nose. Gentle, light kolsch sweetness to taste, typically gassy for an AF beer. Not too much else to say. Generally ok, with no noticeable off notes that accompany some German alcohol-free beers.

UPDATED: JAN 8, 2020 Clear golden with a one finger wide head. Malty smell with a hay note. Unbalanced taste for such a beer. It has this malty component typical for beers without alcohol, which can be a bit disturbing. And the end of the sip has a disagreeable bitterness, way too bitter for a Kölsch. Strong carbonation.

UPDATED: OCT 3, 2019 330ml bottle from Beer HAwk. Golden colour with minimal white head. Cereal aroma as is the taste. A bit metallic. Not bad but not the best.

UPDATED: JUN 20, 2019 33cl bottle @ Restaurant Mama Leone (visited 11.6.2019) in Cologne in Germany. F: big, egg-white, good retention. C: pale gold, clear. A: malty, straw, bit bready, metallic. T: malty, bit bready, citrus touch, worth like, almost medium body, medium carbonation, ok for low alc. beer, drinkable.
