Did You Know

There is a special shape of glass for Kolsch? In fact, as a result of the Kolsch convention of 1986 (and updated in 1997), true Kolsch can essentially not be brewed outside of Europe.

There is also a special serving device: the Kranz (wreath) of Koelsch. I had a lovely time in Koeln (Cologne) drinking this after we parted ways in Innsbruck. You drink the small glasses quickly so the waiters are always coming upstairs with full wreaths and going downstairs with empty ones.
