Details
Kölsch is a regional specialty of Cologne, Germany, and like Champagne, it is protected by “appellation controlee” or designation of origin protection, meaning that only beer from Cologne may be legally called Kölsch. The beer itself is clear, bright straw yellow in colour, and with a prominent floral hoppiness, and a mild bitterness. The beer is very well suited to the Australian palate - easy drinking, refreshing, quaffable, but with enough character (think spices and peppers) to noticeably discern it from a lager.
