Wyeast 2565 Kolsch
A hybrid of ale and lager characteristics. This strain develops excellent maltiness with subdued fruitiness, and a crisp finish. Ferments well at moderate temperatures.
Notes
This style requires water treatment. Mash at or below 150. BeerTools IBU calcs are too high, an ounce of Tettanger should probably be added. Ferment as close to 50F as possible. Diacetyl rest then cold crash in the 40F range.
