This pale, light-bodied golden ale is copyrighted by, brewed in, and named for the German city of Kön. Kölschbier is traditionally given a long, cold aging period like a lager, which makes for a very smooth and clean beer. A small dose of German Hallertau hops cuts the richness of the malt. "Spritzy" is a word often used to describe Kolsch - very refreshing, and a popular lawnmower beer for beer snobs!
The ingredients for the Kölsch kit made a great base for a session ipa, which is happily fermenting as I type! (I never follow kit instructions.) Also, I forgot to add something to my order and NB was very helpful in quickly helping me solve the issue. Next beer is on me!

I just brewed this Kolsch and the beer appears lighter. I hope it tastes as good as my last.

I’ll be brewing this again
My first attempt at a kolsch. I’ve tasted this variety at a couple of breweries around town and this stands up to most of them. I bet it’s more me than this recipe. I had a couple of friends try it and it’s been deemed a keeper. Light bodied, golden ale describes it well.
