Halben Hahn Kolsch
Kölsch • Partial Mash • 5.75 gal
A malty, light & continental style ale. sugar rest <149 degrees is key to dry light body. Munich malt adds malt flavor without body. Spaltz hops give it a refreshing bitterness. My co-worker from Koln named this brew...he says it tastes like the real thing, but the color is a little too golden for his liking.
