Kölschineal

What better way to celebrate Spring than with this beauty? She drinks as beautiful as she looks. We think she has notes of raspberry, cherry and kiwi. But that’s just our opinion. Make sure you take a nice wiff before you start to drink. The smell is amazing. We think this particular prickly pear is from the Cardona fruit that grows abundantly in our area – but that’s just in our own very German opinion (in other words, we don’t know.)
We serve it in snifters and only at the brewery, so that everyone has a chance to enjoy this limited release.
Yes, the Brewster’s hands were pricked, but fortunately no Cochineal Bugs were harmed in the process. After each harvest of fighting thorns and avoiding rattlers, the Brewster swears she’s “never going to do that again!” but once she tastes the fruits of her labor, she starts scouting new areas to harvest.
What are Colchineal Bugs? They are something fun to wiki while enjoying this drink. Prost!
