Short’s Kolsch 45 Coming Soon

Short’s Brewing has a newbie hitting shelves soon called Kolsch 45.  (Think Billy Dee Williams.)  Three batches of Kolsch 45 were brewed.

This thirst quencher is just what you need on a hot summer day. Kolsch beer originated in Cologne, Germany and is unique in that it is a warm fermented ale, but is aged like most traditional German lagers at a cool temperature. Though light in body and color, its prominent hoppiness and radiant yellow “straw” color set it apart. As you taste Kolsch 45, you’ll note that the sustaining head retains prominent, pleasant aromas. Light pilsen and munich malts lend grain flavors, aiding in the crisp, refreshing nature of this beer. Hop bitterness is present but complimentary with hardly any lingering resonance.

Style: Kolsch
Availability: 12 oz bottles, Draft.  (Limited to 40 half barrels, 900 cases)
