Cicerone Certified Beer Server Practice Test

Question: 1 / 400

Which of the following would you be most likely to encounter in a Kolsch?

Amber to brown color

Caramel malt flavor

Elevated ABV (5.8-6.9%)

Moderate bitterness

A Kolsch is typically a light, crisp and refreshing beer style that is often compared to a lager. Option A is incorrect because a Kolsch is known for its pale to straw color, rather than an amber to brown color. Option B is incorrect because a Kolsch is typically made with Pilsner and/or Vienna malts, which do not impart a caramel flavor. Option C is incorrect because Kolsch is a relatively low ABV style, typically ranging from 4.4% to 5.2%. Option D is the correct answer because Kolsch is known for its moderate bitterness from the use of German hops, making it a balanced and drinkable beer style. Overall, the other options do not align with the style guidelines of a Kolsch.
