Commercial Description:
Alt is a German-style beer traditionally brewed in Dusseldorf; it is amber in color with a medium-light body. Alt means “old” in German, implying the old tradition of ale brewing in the country. Cold maturation and Munich malt produce a crisp malt character with a slight hop balance that finishes dry and clean.

I really loved this beer. When I was in Athens, I tried it at the Classic City Brew fest, then had a few more pints of it at the brewpub afterward. Instead of the boring, bland, thin light brown ale that most breweries seem to want to pass off as alts, Copper Creek brewed a clean, crisp ale with a very noticeable hop bite. Quite drinkable and quite tasty.
