Organic Kolsch

[mighty quinn]

unfortunately for my waistline, i've been spending time at Capitol Ale House in downtown Richmond, VA. they've got great octoberfest specials going on and i've been trying to go taste a new beer or 4 on my evenings off. on sunday, i discovered a new type- Kolsch- from the area around Koln, Germany. i believe that the brand was "Reissdorf." the nose on this ale was so clean and crisp. my friends and i split a Brewer's Platter with various sausages and cheeses. i don't think i've ever had a beer which complimented food quite like this one. i'd love to hear thoughts on this type of beer and maybe some suggestions on how to get it in the states. thanx!

If you get Pyramid beers out there, they make a Kolsh called Curveball, though they only sell it from May to July (it's their baseball season seasonal).
