Kölsch If you could drink our crisp, refreshing mountain air, it might taste like this.
The Colorado Kölsch is a derivative of German Kölschs, which were created in response to the popular lager-based Pilsners being produced in the Czech Republic in the 1840s. For those of you who haven’t studied your beer history, that means it’s a light crisp ale with a hint of sweetness. And very refreshing.

Beer voted most likely to be followed by another Colorado Kölsch.
Best With:
A delicate and crisp beer, Colorado Kölsch pairs well with citrus and seafood like tilapia or halibut. Mild cheese such as Mozzarella and Provolone would be a nice counterpoint to the wheat malt used in the grain bill.
