From the label

“FREIGEIST was founded in 2009 with a mission to revive Germany's lost regional, artisanal ales. We now offer bold American-influenced, American-brewed twists on our homeland's most popular beer styles. Rich, hoppy and complex, Ottekelong ("Eau de Cologne") Kölsch is a traditional, unfiltered version of the city's local specialty.”
