Gaffel Kölsch beer

Gaffel Kölsch is a traditional German beer brewed in Cologne, adhering to the German Purity Law of 1516, which permits only water, malt, hops, and hops extract in its production. The beer is characterized by its pale, faintly fruity flavor with a crisp, hop finish. Gaffel Kölsch is produced by Privatbrauerei Gaffel Becker & Co., a family-owned brewery established in 1908, making it one of the oldest breweries in Cologne. The brewery has been family-owned since its inception and continues to operate under the same ownership. The beer is brewed exclusively in Cologne, as Kölsch-style beers are protected by law and can only be produced within the city. Gaffel Kölsch is available in various packaging, including 500 ml cans and 330 ml bottles, and is distributed internationally, reflecting its global appeal. The brewery's flagship pub, Gaffel am Dom, is located near the Cologne Cathedral and serves as a cultural hub for both locals and tourists, offering a traditional setting to enjoy their Kölsch beer.
