CONGRATULATIONS!

YOU ARE ON THE CUSP OF DRINKING A HANDLINE KöLSCH!

“The best Kölsch I have had on this side of the Big Pond.  It’s truly authentic.”

- Horst Dornbusch, Author of “Prost!: The Story of German Beer”

clean. crisp. refreshing.

So, what exactly is Handline Kölsch?

Kölsch was originally brewed in Cologne [Germany] to rival the Lager.  Handline is produced true to style by fermenting Kölsch ale yeast at lower temperatures.  This process creates a drinking experience that is equal parts refreshing and delicious.  

What makes Handline Kölsch unique?

Handline Kölsch is brewed with Vanguard hops, an American varietal and direct descendant of German Hallertau.  This allows for a refreshing modern spin on an otherwise traditional approach to the style. 

Why is it called Handline?

The name “Handline” is a reference to a common starting point for fishing, which doubles as a technique that can be used in commercial and sport fishing. Likewise, this beer can be enjoyed by the novice drinker while also pleasing a seasoned beer enthusiast.

Now that I purchased Handline Kölsch, what should I do?

Refreshing to drink on the beach.  Flavorful to pair with any meal.  Approachable to all party guests.  Traditional to appease beer purists.  Handline Kölsch is for any occasion.
