In this episode Bob and I switch to one of the most delicious beer styles in all the world, Kolsch. Kölsch is one of the most strictly defined beer styles in Germany: according to the Konvention, it is a pale, highly attenuated, hoppy, bright (i.e. filtered and not cloudy) top-fermenting beer, and must be brewed according to the Reinheitsgebot.
Style examples:
1. JAFB – Kemp’s Kolsch
2. Saint Arnold Brewing Company – Fancy Lawn Mower Beer
3. Colner Hofbrau Fruh – Fruh Kolsch
ABV: 4.4 – 5.2%
IBUs: 18-30
Color: 3.5 - 5
Serving Temp: 40-45F
Serving Pressure: 10-12 PSI
Beer Representation: The Brewer of Seville Kolsch and the Gang
5.1% ABV
27 IBUs
Beer Description: Fermented low (63F) and under pressure this beer produces a slight breadiness which blends nicely with the floral notes from the Hallertau Mittelfruh hops. At the end the beer dries out slowly to produce a nice crushable summer time lawn mower beer.
Beer Representation: Tree House Brewing - Outlier
ABV: 4.3%
IBUs: N/A
Beer Description: Outlier is a Kolsch-style ale brewed to be eminently drinkable yet loaded with nuance, character, and individuality. It pours a glowing translucent yellow color in the glass with a puffy head that sticks around while you enjoy it. We taste a kiss of lemon, earthy noble hops, doughy malts, a hint of pear, gentle minerality, and a pleasant whisper of wheat that sticks around on the finish. Outlier is a beer brewed with tradition in mind, and the idea that nuanced, carefully crafted beers can enhance living in ways that few other beers can. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
