Few brewing cultures have a history that runs as deep and strong as that of Cologne, Germany and none have born a style like Kölsch. Complex but eminently drinkable - if put together properly, a good Kölsch-Style beer can deliver enough depth of character that it begs another sip along with the drinkability to keep allowing for the next one. Made with an especially clean top-fermenting strain, hopped carefully and lagered for 8-weeks we think Bower delivers on that goal.

Canned 5/18/22, drunk 5/24/22. Clear, bright beeswax-number-two-pencil. Medium, white head shows good retention. Nose is beautiful. Super-expressive malts (honey, sourdough, biscuit) with big herbal and floral hop notes. Kolsch yeast adding mineral, light fruitiness and no alcohol or flaw. Soft and malty with great malt sweetness, though not too much so. Bitterness is a bit stiff, is my only complaint, even if the hops are traditional and delicious. Big malts, big hops, just a very robust kolsch, which is fine. The flavors are excellent. Honey, herbs, grass, sourdough, mineral, soft yellow fruits. Clean.

Pours clear bright gold into a shaker. Bright white head with little retention recedes to skim surface. Sweet hay aromas. Crisp and sharp with sweet and sour hay, grass and rustic bread upfront turning to bitter earth in the medium length finish.
