Summer Kolsch Review

My go to summer beer may have been replaced with the latest beer I have on tap. It is a summer Kolsch recipe that I modified from a few different recipes I've used in the past. For this one the focus was on keeping it a well-balanced easy to drink lawnmower beer.

This is also the first beer that I ran through my new filter system, which I can see will probably work very well, though it's hard to tell how effective it is due to the presence of wheat in this receipe. Those who brew will recall that you can't filter wheat out - think Hefeweizen - though not as much wheat.

In any case, the results are stellar, both out of the keg and from the beer gun into bottles. Could this be "Yellow Bike"?
