Larrikin
The Basics
Style - German Kolsch
ABV - 6.04%
Description
Light and Crips ale/lager hybrid with a slightly vinous finish accompanying light apple and pear notes, perfect for drinking on a warm summer day.
The Name
Larrikin is Aussie slang for a mischievous person, someone uncultivated and rowdy but good hearted. Given the blurring of the lines between an Ale and Lager the name seemed fitting (also the slight increase in ABV).
The Ingredients
Malts
Pilsner, Viena and Acid malts
Hops
Hallertau Mittelfreuh
Beer Facts
Technically for the beer to be considered a kilsche it must be brewed in Cologne, Germany but I 1000% don’t care.
The Pairings
Bratwurst, nutty cheeses, apricots, and light desserts.
