Kölsch near me
Cologne’s pale ale-lager hybrid. US taprooms brew it as a patio pour that still tastes like beer, not seltzer.
Soft fruit, delicate hops, and a dry, elegant finish.

Where this style shows up
Matched from live tap lists and designed menus — not a guessed “on draft right now” for every venue.
No owner-published tap-list match is live yet. The notes above stay as a style guide — ABV, glassware, and how it tastes — so this page is still useful before a tap card is posted.
