Watch City: Rescue 1 Kolsch

Germany loves David Hasselhoff, and Germans apparently also love Watch City Brewery. I have no solid evidence of it other than two German tourists who came in asking if the store sold their beer because they loved it. I told them unfortunately we did not, and that they'd have to go to the brewery to get it. On their way out they told me that Watch City makes the best German style beers they've had in the states, and I agreed for one reason. Americans don't make great Kolschs, but Watch City makes a really excellent one.
On December 8th, 2011 Worcester Firefighter Jon Davies passed away in the line of duty fighting a 3 alarm fire, and to raise money for the fallen heroes family, Watch City Brewed Rescue One Kolsch. Rescue one is a grassy, lemony beer that's so light and fluffy yet so full of that citrusy hop finish that it could be drunk all day and night and still feel fresh on the tongue. And it's available again this year, right now on tap at the brewery. I had it with a nice buffalo chicken flatbread and it couldn't have complimented it better, the spicy chicken and the crisp dry beer washes it down perfectly. Go get some now while it's on tap.
