Commercial Description:
Richly malty and long on the palate, with just enough hop backing to make this beautiful amber colored "alt" style beer notably well-balanced.

Bottle. Nice presentation -- a redder amber, good foam retention. Aroma is great too -- yeast, hops and caramel. Light medium body with a bit more extending bitterness than malt texture and flavor.

I am not too familiar with altbiers, this is my first - but to me this tasted like nothing more than a red, lighter scotch ale. Pretty malty, more easy to drink though, not bad all in all. I’d drink it again.

Amber with minimal head. Aroma is caramel malts and light spice. Flavour is caramel and sweet with a nut presence. Dry finish. Well made brew.

Pours a three-finger white head which quickly fades and leaves no lace. Light carbonation and medium bodied. Nice clear, deep amber color. Nose is malty. Starts mellow and sweet, finishes smooth with a touch of hops. Very good Alt. $2.59 for a 12oz bottle from One Stop Oasis Las Vegas, NV.

On draft at The Garage in Seattle. Pour is clear copper with a nice off white head. Aroma is sweet malt. Taste is more of the sweetness, with a nice full palate. Nothing really jumps out on this one, but it is a nice smooth, very drinkable beer. I was quite surprised to see this listed as Altbier, rather than Amber Ale. I guess it is the lagering that made this so drinkable.

Small tan head that dissipates quickly ending up looking like a glass of iced tea. Clear amber hued brew. Lightly grainy nose, malty. Medium body, dead. Buttery malt flavors, lightly sweet. Fairly dry malty finish. Was expecting a bit more from this one,hmmmm? Thanks to fordest for the trade!
