This is a loose, 4% drinking beer, based on the fruity esters of Kölsch yeast. This is built on the inimitable aroma of freshly picked elderflower, rounded out by the citrusy, grassy flavour of Cashmere hops. And a little Melanoidin malt ensures that this 4% beer doesn't come across as too hollow, but remains eminently drinkable with a suitably low final specific gravity. Like drinking Grandma's elderberry syrup :)
-2 weeks of cold soak after carbonation, and it's at its best from week 4 onwards-
