Allagash Clementine Kolsch

◎ Aussehen

Pours pale gold with a subtle haze characteristic of the style. A white head forms with moderate persistence and decent lacing around the glass. The slight cloudiness suggests natural conditioning and unfiltered character typical of traditional Kölsch production.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with bright ripe orange and clementine, followed by a zesty peel character that is lightly oily rather than sharp. Beneath the citrus sits a soft, clean cracker-like malt backdrop with delicate herbal Edelpilser hop notes that add refinement without dominating the composition.

◐ Geschmack

The palate entry is clean and refreshing, with the clementine and orange characters carrying through seamlessly from the aroma. Mid-palate reveals soft, biscuity malt sweetness that grounds the citrus without becoming cloying, while the hop bitterness remains restrained and herbal. The beer's light body allows the flavors to remain crisp and defined.

◑ Abgang

The finish is dry and crisp, with the citrus peel character lingering gently on the palate. A subtle herbal hop note persists into the aftertaste, and any residual sweetness dissolves quickly, leaving a clean, refreshing dryness.
