Beer hunting!

Guten Tag, fellow travelers and beer enthusiasts! Today, I'm thrilled to take you on a journey through my recent trip in Germany, where I indulged in the country's renowned alcoholic delights, from the crisp taste of German beer to the sweet notes of its exquisite wines.

Let's start my adventure with the cornerstone of German culture: beer. As a alcohol lover: friends, you know how lovery I am for alcohol!, I couldn't resist immersing myself in the rich brewing traditions of this European gem. My taste buds danced with joy as I sampled the quintessential German pilsner and Kölsch, the local beer of Cologne.

Now, let's delve into the fascinating differences between the pilsner and Kölsch. While both are emblematic of German brewing excellence, they each offer a unique drinking experience. The pilsner, characterized by its full-bodied taste and slightly bitter finish, is a staple in beer halls and taverns across the country. On the other hand, Kölsch delights the palate with its lighter, more delicate flavor profile and pale golden hue. Brewed exclusively in Cologne, Kölsch is typically served in small, cylindrical glasses known as "Stangen," allowing drinkers to savor its refreshing qualities with every sip.

The German pilsner, with its distinctively thick texture and robust flavor, left a lasting impression on me. Each sip was a symphony of hops and malt, a testament to the craftsmanship that goes into brewing this beloved beverage. But it was in Cologne, with its vibrant beer culture, that I truly fell in love with Kölsch.

Kölsch, served fresh from the brewery, captivated me with its refreshing taste and crisp finish. Whether enjoyed in a traditional Brauhaus or a quaint tavern, each glass of Kölsch was a celebration of Cologne's brewing heritage. I got convinced with this quality, knowing later that the quality is stabilized among the breweries with a license; no one can call the beer “Kölsch” without it even if the taste is good. Let's not forget the unparalleled experience of savoring this local gem straight from the source, courtesy of the esteemed brewery Kölsche.
