Gordon Biersch unveils summer beer June 23
Gordon Biersch Biersch Restaurant and Brewery in Columbus will hold a special tapping from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. June 23 for its new summer beer called SommerBrau. The beer is a kolsch style. "Kolsch literally means the beer of Cologne, Germany," brewer Chris Alltmont said in an email. "This beer style is a light bodied beer fermented using a special top fermenting yeast strain, which we import specially from Germany, brewing it true to style. It is brewed with 80 percent pale-malted barley and 20 percent malted wheat. The pintpoint bitterness of the German Tettnang hops and crisp finish make this beer perfect for summertime enjoyment." The beer is low alcohol at 4.8 percent and is expected to be available through July.
