Cologne beers are amongst the best in the world mate. For it to be a Kolsch there's ridiculously strict regulations about what can be put into it... Only 4 ingredients I believe. Water, Hops, Malt and Barley maybe. They don't pump it full of the ****e that we do. Any Kolsch is a brilliant beer and Cologne is well worth a visit for the pubs.
It's actually brewed by the Darwin Brewery in Sunderland mate...I managed to get a couple of boxes of complimentary bottles via work..Proper good real ale quality..
Klone I guess is a pun on clone then... I need to have a look into this. If it's an English Kolsch style beer I need to try it. Either that or they need reporting to trading standards and possibly done for using a trademark.
We were given these straight from the brewery before being labelled properly..I'm going by a white sticker label with the name of the beer and date it was actually brewed..
well that was a long read. still nee idea what the outcome was... i would have been unable to offer any kind of sensible advise on this subject anyway.
