Kölsch beer discovered by influencer in Texas

Food influencer Emeka Iwueze, who resides in Düsseldorf, recently discovered Kölsch beer at a restaurant in Fredericksburg, Texas. While expressing surprise at finding the Cologne-style specialty in the United States, Iwueze noted that the establishment carried the Reissdorf brewery's bottled version but lacked Altbier from Düsseldorf.

Kölsch is a bright, top-fermented, and filtered beer from Cologne. According to the Kölsch Convention established in 1986, the name is reserved for specific types of hop-heavy beer brewed exclusively in the Cologne region and its immediate surroundings.
