Crisp-bitter & biscuity recommendations

Yep, it was a good afternoon.  I think that it was both the lack of hops - I suppose that you had got used to the new breed of US-stuff - and the strength - you used to prepare some strange mixtures of normal Franken beers, 'watered' down with low alcohol stuff.  Sounded dire but there you are, it's all down to personal taste.  I can't really remember how Koelsch tasted - I only remember that it came in little glasses (one mouthful), was full of froth and cost a lot! There's loads of quite low strength beers in the Uk now - see my posting about the Albion in Conwy.  And certainly no shortage of hops, especially those from your native country!
