{"product_id":"hbs-wkolsch","title":"KOLSCH ALE Recipe Kit","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis Kölsch-style ale is a clean, crisp, and slightly malty beer that blends traditional ingredients with a unique twist. The base of Vienna malt adds a subtle toasty richness, balanced by classic Pilsner for a clean backbone, while white wheat malt contributes a smooth mouthfeel and enhanced head retention. Noble hops—Hallertau and Saaz—offer a delicate bitterness with floral and herbal notes, staying true to the Kölsch style without overwhelming the palate. Fermented with K-97 German ale yeast, the beer finishes dry and clear with a mild fruity character, making it exceptionally refreshing. Light-bodied but flavorful, this brew is perfect for warm-weather drinking and those who appreciate a refined, German-inspired ale with a touch of complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAuthentic Kölsch-Style Flavor – Brew a crisp, refreshing German-style ale with a smooth malt backbone and a clean, dry finish.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePremium Grain Blend – Features Vienna, Pilsner, and white wheat malts for balanced body, light toastiness, and enhanced head retention.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNoble Hop Character – Uses Hallertau and Saaz hops for a classic European hop aroma with floral, herbal, and slightly spicy notes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFerments Clean with K-97 Yeast – Includes K-97 German ale yeast for a soft fruity profile and excellent clarity after conditioning.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePerfect for Intermediate Brewers – Designed for 5-gallon batches; a great step up for brewers looking to explore hybrid German ales.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HomeBrewStuff","offers":[{"title":"Extract","offer_id":12398231814201,"sku":"hbs-wkolsch","price":44.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"All Grain","offer_id":12398231846969,"sku":"hbs-wkolsch","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0080\/1131\/7305\/files\/kolsch__PIC1.jpg?v=1746736007","url":"https:\/\/www.homebrewstuff.com\/products\/hbs-wkolsch","provider":"Home Brew Stuff ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
