The beer has a distinctive, unique characteristic from Sorachi Ace, a hop variety developed in Japan in the 1970s. Deep red in colour, this hoppy red ale has a malty, caramel base with an abundance of hop character. Sorachi Ace hops provide hints of coconut, dill and a touch of oak, with the Citra hops delivering a hit of grapefruit citrus and a bitter finish.  

We adjusted the water profile to produce a brewing liquor high in carbonate and phosphoric acid, with a slight alkaline edge to complement wheat-based ramen noodles.

Reviews ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

  • Untappd:

    "Excellent rendition of the Kölsch style. Light, crisp, very creamy foam. Well done!"

  • Ferment Magazine:

    “It’s always great when a beer like Orbit Beer’s Nico Köln Lager comes in front of our tasting panel and everyone shares my delight. It’s bang-on style, with noble hops providing delicious grassy, herbal and spicy notes.”

  • The Nudge:

    “Their signature lager, Nico, is highly drinkable.”
