Hale's Ales Kolsch

Still moving along on this Washington train of beers i dipped into last month, and one of my absolute favorites has to be the Hale's Ales Kolsch from Hale's Ales Brewery.  While imbibing a large number of different brews at the Bremerton Brewfest on an unseasonably hot day in the Pacific Northwest, the real standout of the afternoon was this wonderful German style ale.  It's refreshing and delicious and was a perfect concoction to drink on such a hot Saturday.  The beer looks of golden straw and smells sweet like honey.  The taste is predominantly sweet with hints of wheat and malt, and i easily could have spent all afternoon drinking this beer.  It's probably one of the best Kolsch style brews i've ever had the joy of drinking.  And, it has the notable distinction of being the only beer at the fest that i came back for seconds of.  Oh, how i wish i could get this in Texas.
