Are you a lover of the Finest Beer?Illustration of Wheat

Kolsch

The efforts to make this as authentic as possible are remarkable: from Germany, we have imported Pilsner Malt from Durst Malts of the Hallertau region; we employ a specialized Kölsch yeast that ferments cool like a lager, but is actually a top-fermenting yeast, making it a true hybrid; we then age it cold in our cellar for a prolonged period of time, again like a lager.

Technically speaking, Kölsch is an Ale – but this conventional Kölsch process, which dates back to the early 17th century, delivers a bright and clear beer, with a straw-yellow hue that is endlessly drinkable and a perfect addition to our line-up of pilsner-style beers.

Young Lions

Our Young Lions series of beers are all conceived, created and crafted by the next generation of brewers at Hoyne. Brewmaster Sean Hoyne lends his experience and knowledge to help them experiment with the art of brewing craft beer – much in the same way that Frank Appleton shared his experience with Sean.

Use good malt, good cereals, and good hops, well-boiled, that you pitch with top-yeast, and by no means with bottom yeast.
