Research Notes

• First pass: The brewery home page lists no beers; its BEERS navigation link (tasting room page) returned HTTP 404.
• First pass: An Untappd brewery page lookup under a guessed handle returned HTTP 404, and the web search budget ran out before a name search could be made.
• First pass: No 2026 medal announcement from the brewery was found.
• First pass: Researched 2026-10-13.
• Second pass 2026-10-13: The exact Untappd page supplies the selected strength and bitterness; BeerAdvocate lists 5% ABV instead. The brewery confirms year-round availability but publishes no figures on that page, so the strength conflict remains unresolved. Flavor references are not treated as named ingredients.
• Field pass 2026-10-13: The previously verified brewery classics page explicitly lists Kolsch and is assigned as beer url because no dedicated page was found. Its link and source entry were already present. No hop variety was verified in additional searches.
• Catalog.beer 2026-10-14: Catalog.beer: Kolsch lists 4.2% ABV, 16 IBU, style "German-Style Kölsch / Köln-Style Kölsch" (entry last modified 2020-05-02). Where it differs from the brewery's own published value, the brewery's value stands.
• Deep dive pass 2026-10-14: the description on file comes from Untappd and is not extended.
