A Note on This Beer

“pFriem Family Brewers in Hood River, Oregon has produced some of the finest beers our judges have ever had the privilege to imbibe. As such, pFriem can be called the best brewery in the world.” –The Beer Connoisseur, in 2020.

Yep, you heard correctly: pFriem is The Best Brewery. In. The. World! 

And, after a taste of today’s Kölsch-Style Ale, I bet you’ll understand why The Beer Connoisseur showers pFriem with such high praise. 

Loaded with three types of malt and Tettnang Tettnanger and Hallertau Perle Hops, each sip shimmers with delicate flavors of toasted biscuits topped with slices of fresh pear, all drizzled in sweet honey. On the finish, a hint of hibiscus and subtly tart green apple balance out the touch of sweetness. The mouthfeel is as crisp as a springtime breeze. 

And, it seems the craft scene’s responding with The Beer Connoisseur-levels of enthusiasm. This celebrity of a brew won GOLD at the Great American Beer Festival just last year! 

A beautiful beer like this doesn’t come around often. Ready to experience the ‘best brewery in the world’ for yourself?

Looking to pair today’s brew with a tasty meal? pFriem says, “the crisp and lightly cruelty aroma of Kölsch pairs beautifully with shellfish, soft cheeses, and smoked meats.”

Tavour strictly supports independent beer. pFriem Family Brewers is certified independent by the Brewers Association

Light, dry with just enough Kölsch-y-ness… After tons of DDHIPA and Triple head spinners this one went down well. A Low-Octane crowd pleaser.

gorgeous kolsch. bready, pear, grainy, low bitterness. only wish it was a little more vanilla sweet like a traditional kolsch. but a minor gripe for a well done classic style.

I was looking for something light & bright and this really hit the spot. Dry, light, slightly funky, relatively bright, and creamy effervescent. I think this is a lovely Kölsch, and I’m glad I picked up a bottle.
