Hello everyone,
I'm Ricardo, living in Cologne (Germany). You maybe know Cologne (called Köln in german) from our Kölsch, only allowed to name it Kölsch when brewed inside the city walls (there is just one exception).
I brew my own beer since one and a half year. A few days ago my brewing-mate and me brewed our 31. batch.
Our housebeer is some interpretation of Kölsch, but of course not filtered (what breaks the law of Kölsch, see 'Kölschkonvention').
But to be honest: I don't like Kölsch that much. The style I really love is the belgian. Last year I visited Belgium three times and this year I was there already, too.
By the way: There is a remarkable beerfestival in Belgium on 7th of march. Anybody is heading this event?
Some other styles I really like: IPAs, Barley Wines and Stouts; and of course our bavarian Weizen!
Summarizing I'm here to get some more information, recipes and tips. Also I hope to be able to help with my knowledge and experience, too.
With best regards
Ricardo
