Beer Release | Altbier | 6.6%

Altbeer is a traditional German ale originating from the Rhineland region, specifically associated with Düsseldorf. This amber-hued beer boasts a robust flavor profile and a moderate alcohol content of 6.6%, offering a balanced and satisfying drinking experience.

Upon pouring, you'll be greeted by a rich, coppery liquid that emanates enticing malt aromas. The malt backbone is prominent, delivering a harmonious blend of toasty, caramel, and biscuity notes. This malt complexity is complemented by a subtle yet discernible hop presence, contributing a mild earthy or herbal character.

Altbeer is renowned for its clean fermentation profile, resulting in a crisp finish that invites another sip. The moderate alcohol content adds a touch of warmth without overpowering the overall balance. As you savor each mouthful, you'll likely detect a nuanced interplay of malt sweetness, mild bitterness, and a gentle hint of fruity esters from the yeast.

Whether enjoyed in a cozy pub in Düsseldorf or in the comfort of your home, this 6.6% Altbier promises a delightful journey through the rich brewing traditions of Germany, combining malt complexity with a drinkability that makes it a classic and enduring beer style.
