Kölsch Vs. Alt: The golden, crisp beer of Cologne vs the maltier, amber beer of Düsseldorf. One will not survive this day.

Open 1 - 9p, or until a winner emerges.

Ein Prosit!

Each beer will be served according to tradition in both Köln and Düsseldorf: in .2cl Stanges, by your Köbes , at your table.

Kölsch AND Altbier are traditionally served in 0.2-liter [7-ounce] tall, thin glasses called stanges. Köbes [servers] will come around to the tables with krantz [circular trays designed to hold many stanges] and place a full glass of Kölsch or Altbier next to a glass that is nearing empty so that the drinker never has to wait for a fresh ale.

This guarantees the beer never warms up too much and is always fresh from the tap.

Each time a stange is replaced, a tally mark is written on the drinker’s coaster. Finished drinking? Place the coaster on top. 

When you are ready to close out, bring your coaster up to the bar and we’ll close you out for the ticks on the coaster.

Each Stange fill costs $2.75, or $25 for each 10 marks (10 fills.) 'Lost’ coasters will result in a $50 fee.

No reservations required. 21+.
