Upstream’s Kölsch is a style distinctive to Köln (Cologne) Germany. The name Kölsch is, like champagne, Appellation Controlee, protected by law so that only beers brewed in and around Köln Germany can bear the name.
The bartenders, called Köbes, clad in blue shirt, dark trousers and apron, patrol the Biergarten or Brauerei bringing Kölsch to the waiting customers. Many people would mistake it for a lager but Kölsch is a warm fermenting beer a survivor of the days before lager, though it is now given a period of lagering.
Upstream’s Köbes Kölsch appearance is pale straw-colored and clear. The taste is delicate and refreshing, with a light distinct hop flavor from the traditional German hallertau mittelfruh hops, gently fruitier and a little sweeter, with a delightful biscuityness. Upstream’s Kölsch uses pale barley malt, & malted wheat. The result is a refreshing cool beer, ideal for summer afternoons.
