Re: Garrison Home Brew-Off 2018
This works out great because it's not a beer I would search for or anything but it's gonna be nice to have a few Kegs of this when I head home for Christmas. Definitely will be a crowd pleaser. By then I'll know how to brew it.

Re: Garrison Home Brew-Off 2018
I think I'm going to give this one a go too. Need to do some reading first though. Anyone have book recommendations for designing beers? I'm starting to read the Brewing Classic Styles book and it's pretty great so far

Re: Garrison Home Brew-Off 2018
Brewed one over the summer, based it mostly off of the BCS recipe. I ended up only being able to use Wyeast 2565 and next time would try to use WLP029 since 2565 did not drop clear (some people might not care about a clear Kolsch but I wanted one) even after a 3+ weeks cold crashing in the carboy and a month on tap.
On tap: APA, Dubbel, Dark Mild
Fermenting: Brett Saison 2022, Schwarzbier, APA, Sour Brown,
Coming up: American Wheat (Fruited), Vienna Lager, Dortmunder
Bottled: Brett Saison 2020, Brett Saison 2021, Baltic Porter

Just doughed in a 10 g batch of a Kolsch for this. 1 keg for my work Christmas party and the other to lager for the competition. Yeast stepped up and ready to rock n roll!!

Re: Garrison Home Brew-Off 2018
Should see some renewed interest based on the style.

Re: Garrison Home Brew-Off 2018
I've made this style lots of times. Personally, I preferred Wyeast 2565 over WLP029. I let it lager for a couple of months every time, so it was always pretty clear.
I'd suggest reading this book - https://www.amazon.ca/Kolsch-History-Br ... 937381586/

Yeah, good book, shhhh...
I may enter this but probably won't brew it until the new year.

Re: Garrison Home Brew-Off 2018
Really? I guess I rushed as I needed it on tap for a party, regardless I did really enjoy the fruitiness it brought to the beer though!Buccaneer wrote: ↑Sun Nov 05, 2017 4:49 pmI've made this style lots of times.

Also agree with that book choice, it's a great read! I have e-book copy of it if anyone wants to read it.

Does anyone have experience with using Safale K-97 German Ale yeast for this style of beer?

With all this talk about Kölsch, people may start to be interested in these:

Re: Garrison Home Brew-Off 2018
I need beer glasses like I need another hole in my head, but I may just have to get some, even if it really is a dumb way to drink beer.

Re: Garrison Home Brew-Off 2018
You typically need several, since I think they're only 200ml. As I said, a dumb way to drink, but that's how they do it in Cologne.
