Khaos Kolsch brewed by
Icicle Brewing Company - Leavenworth, Washington
As the
frigid water of Icicle Creek tumbles down the canyon, pouring over
boulders, churning in eddies, foam and froth billowing from beneath,
it dreams of one day becoming the greatest beer ever. A German Ale
that delicately balances subtle fruit flavors and aromas with a
subdued maltiness, a beer that’s fresh like an alpine spring and as
crisp as a mountain breeze. It dreams of brewing up to be the
downright drinkable, Khaos Kolsch. ABV: 5.0%. IBU: 21.
Beer Review from Beer Advocate
Appearance - Poured a crystal-clear light yellowy gold, with 1-1/2
fingers of white medium bubble head. Great retention, and moderate
lacing.
Aroma - Rosy round-bodied floral scent up front, followed by a
strong sunny graininess, as well as wheaty sweetness.
Taste - Round rosy wheat, moderate and pleasantly sweet, to start,
followed by a bit of lemony citrus. The citrus isn't sharp, but
slightly acidic, and fits in the roundness of the rosy wheat
character. Finishes with not to sweet wheat.
Mouthfeel - Light body, sharp fizzy carbonation on the front of the
tongue immediately. Fizz fades to reveal mild-to-moderate lemon
bitterness at the back of the tongue. Finishes very dry and crisp.
Overall - Good flavor, the fizziness added quite a bit of zip. The
dry finish keeps this from being thirst-quenching, but it is
refreshing, especially on a hot day.
The Brulotte Family
In 2001, we (Oliver, Pamela Brulotte and our children Gabrielle,
Joshua & Elise) were fortunate enough to move to Leavenworth,
Washington. At that time we built and opened München Haus Bavarian
Grill & Beer Garden,
www.munchenhaus.com. Operating a beer garden has opened our eyes
to the amazing craft brews available around the world and especially
the Northwest, and we take pleasure in having the opportunity to
share these with our customers and enjoy them ourselves. With our
love of beer and Oliver’s family history of hop farming that spans
four generations, it was a natural fit to want to produce fresh,
delicious, local craft brews. There is nothing more Bavarian than
having a brewery in your own town, so after a family trip to
Germany, we realized what a great addition a brewery would be to the
beautiful “Bavarian Getaway” that we call home. We look forward to
providing you with a craft beer experience that will excite your
senses, quench your thirst, expand your horizons, and keep you
coming back for more!
