This hearty brew will have a rich mahogany color, caramel notes, and a hint of herbal flavor.

The kolsch was great. I applaud Summit for the Unchained Series and the brewers showing some imagination and not just cranking out Yet Another Overly Hoppy Quintuple IPA or Super Imperial XXXXtreme Oaked Barrel-Aged POS.
Their first “Unchained” brew, a Kolsch, was superb. Great concept from Summit. Keep it up!
Concept was not Summits, Tyrannea has been doing it for awile. Although smart of Summit to grab hold and change there line-up up
They should provide a ballot in each six-pack and let folks vote on their favorite, and add comments. The winner gets produced as a seasonal for at least one season. Engage the customer!
@ BeerTruck… that’s a great idea about the ballot.
I vote for a saison. Maybe for next summer?
