Brick Road Kölsch: A Crisp & Refining German-Style Ale
Experience the taste of a German summer with our Kölsch brewing kit. This classic ale is the perfect introduction to homebrewing, yielding a brilliantly pale, light-bodied beer with a delicate fruitiness and a clean, satisfying finish.
What You'll Brew:
-
Aroma & Flavour: A subtle, graceful fruitiness from our European ale yeast, complemented by an optional noble hop aroma that is floral, spicy, and utterly refreshing.
-
Appearance: A beautiful pale straw colour, clear and bright.
-
Character: Crisp, smooth, and incredibly drinkable. It’s the perfect session beer for any occasion.
Your Brewing Journey, Made Simple:
This all-in-one can contains our exceptional hopped wort—the foundation of your great beer. Just follow these steps for a crisp, refreshing Kölsch:
-
Mix & Make it Your Own: Empty the contents of the can into your fermenter. Add about 3 litres of hot water and stir thoroughly to dissolve the concentrated wort. Then, add your 1kg of brewing sugar (dextrose) and stir again until fully dissolved. Finally, top up the fermenter with cold water to reach the 23-litre mark.
-
Pitch & Ferment: Sprinkle in the included European Ale Yeast. Seal your fermenter and place it in a stable, room-temperature environment (around 18-20°C is ideal). The active fermentation will typically be complete within 3 to 7 days. You'll know it's slowing down when the vigorous bubbling in the airlock subsides.
-
Dry Hop (Optional) & Condition: If you are dry-hopping, this is the time to do it. Just as the active fermentation is finishing (e.g., around days 3-5), add your hops. Adding them at this stage means the remaining active yeast will consume any oxygen introduced when you open the fermenter, and the naturally produced CO2 will help protect your beer from oxidation .After any dry hop addition, allow the beer to condition for another 3 to 7 days. This gives the yeast time to "clean up" any off-flavours and allows the hop particles to settle.
-
Carbonate & Enjoy: Once conditioning is complete, bottle your beer with carbonation drops. Store the bottles at room temperature for 1-2 weeks to allow for natural carbonation before chilling and enjoying your fresh, homebrewed Kölsch .
Approximate Specifications (for 23L batch with 1kg dextrose):
-
ABV Range: Brew it as a sessionable Low (2.6%) or a classic Mid (4.8%) strength.
-
Colour: Pale Straw (5 EBC)
-
Bitterness: Low-Medium (17 IBU)
-
Original Gravity (OG): 1.038
-
Final Gravity (FG): 1.008 (approx.)
The Brick Road Promise: Quality in Every Can
We believe great beer starts with the best ingredients. That’s why we’ve sourced the world’s finest malted grains, blending pale and wheat malts to perfectly suit the Kölsch style. We then mash these grains and hop them with precision extracts to create a rich, balanced wort. To lock in all the fresh, delicious flavour, we gently reduce this wort and can it fresh on-site.
Follow the Brick Road to a rewarding new hobby. In just a few weeks, you'll be enjoying fresh, craft beer that tastes better than any commercial lager—because you brewed it yourself.
