Dundee Kolsch Style Ale


From the makers of Genesee beer, Dundee Kolsch from a variety pack (you may be familiar with Dundee Honey Brown).

A golden, light amber color.  Smells sweet & sour, ester spice & a bit of phenolic aroma.  A hint of liquor (whiskey/bourbon).  Honey and sourdough bread (malty).  Tastes a little sweet; syrupy.  A little grainy; leafy.  An easily noticeable presence of alcohol.  Almost astringent.  Feels crisp, with a semi-dry aftertaste.  A hefty amount of carbonation.

Overall, a decent beer, but I'm guessing it's not entirely sessionable due to the discerned high level of alcohol (probably around 5.5-6%).  At least worth trying out.
