Most Underrated Styles?

I love them, I was working outside a few weekends ago and it was blazing hot, kicked back a few dark lagers and it was so refreshing, to me they are perfect for summer time.
Cheers

 

yeah... same here... I am a big Kolsch fan as well.

Stateside made Kolsch's still come up from time to time I notice. I also seem to remember it was made a little more often, and more common by breweries years ago. Seemed like every new brewery was making a Kolsch.

I got the impression it was a good starter intro style for non craft beer drinkers to have when they visited a brewery or were trying to decide what to try first if they were a common mass lager drinker. Unfortunately too it sort of became for a little bit there like Gose is now, the style to become.... say lets add a whole bunch of fruit or whatever else we can to make this more wild, particularly a ton of hops!

Which is polarizing for some people, oh well.

I loved trying some of the bottled Kolsch's I could get (wasn't anywhere near Koln Kolsch country) when I was in Germany. Just a great style.

 

Pilsener still gets a bum rap from people who think a light drinking, light colored lager automatically equals an AAL. I used to be one of those. Fortunately, I got over it a while ago.
