That's wild stuff.

Finding a pub or brewpub with a single lonely tap, though - not so much. It's not unique to Cologne or Düsseldorf, either. I can name more than a few places in Franconia that serve the single house beer, fresh from the keg, and that's it for the beer. Or, for even better examples, try the classic Zoiglstub'n of the Oberpfalz -DonSnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21271644.post-74648742829598903862012-10-25T08:25:05.164-07:002012-10-25T08:25:05.164-07:00Jack: Kölsch is actually lagered -- that's why...Jack: Kölsch is actually lagered -- that's why it's so clean and ...well... lager-like!Erlangernickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09564871714656285737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21271644.post-28934684203486764362012-10-20T09:29:20.265-07:002012-10-20T09:29:20.265-07:00@Anonymous

They started brewing at the former Golden Pacific Brewery in 2004, and haven't stopped growing since, so such a thing does work here in the states.Ryan Hirschtnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21271644.post-74803046391819992652012-10-19T20:15:47.662-07:002012-10-19T20:15:47.662-07:00Something tells me that the concept of a pub/brewe...Something tells me that the concept of a pub/brewery with only one beer on offer, placing the focus on the social atmosphere and not any discussion of beer, would strike a cold-sweat fear in the hearts of the average American beer geek.

In a taproom, Kölsch is as likely as golden ale. <br /><br />I attribute this to Colorado semi-arid or alpine climate. A crisp, clean, thirst quenching malt beverage without the expense of lagering.<br /><br />_200 ml serving size_<br />The 6.8 oz serving size Jack R.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07625645308707849072noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21271644.post-27082086605065725772012-10-17T10:33:40.677-07:002012-10-17T10:33:40.677-07:00You do know about Braustelle in Köln-Ehrenfeld, do...You do know about Braustelle in Köln-Ehrenfeld, don't you? They haven't made an imperial Kölsch (I have a hard time imagining that at any rate) or anything, but they do have a regular summer beer brewed with Reinheitsgebot-defying hibiscus flowers -- and I believe a subversive (for Cologne) Alt as well. They also put on the best beer festival in Germany, imho.Gerrit (@geo21481)noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21271644.post-3076619108404408902012-10-16T22:41:37.727-07:002012-10-16T22:41:37.727-07:00Amazing.

But if the single beer is good, why not? Guaranteed fresh beer, with the barrels emptying fast because everyone is drinking the same thing, seems like a very good model to me. <br /><br />The devotion to Kölsch in the city is quite remarkable.
