hopIQ found 10 beers with the same clean and crisp character as QBrew Kölsch. A Kölsch brewed as a charity release with a Toronto radio station, with proceeds supporting a relief fund for the Canadian music industry. Following the German model it is fermented cool with ale yeast and then conditioned cold, which leaves it crisp and clean. The aroma offers a slightly sweet apple and pear character with a subtle noble hop note. Soft on the palate, balanced in malt and bitterness, and refreshing through the finish. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
