Commercial Description:
This full bodied amber ale is modeled after the "altbiers" of Dusseldorf, Germany. Our top fermenting yeast and cold finishing temperature result in a complex, yet clean, full flavor.

Draft at The Copperhead Grill pours a deep amber with a decent off white head. Aroma has malty base with some hints of fruit. Has a good carbination, a lght body, and an okay mouthfeel. Has a watery texture. Fairly decent finish. This is a decent beer, not too heavy or too light has akay flavor and good drinkability.

From a 22 fl. oz. bottle marked 121608-84857. The pour is an amber-copper with a short-lived off-white foamy head, decent carbonation, and light lacing. The aroma is of roasted malts with a near overriped fruity sensation. But it is not unappealing. Medium mouth feel. The flavor starts sweet and malty, becomes a tad bitter,and ends with crispy hops. Not quite as hoppy as the style suggests but still a good experrience.

Enjoyed from a 12oz bottle. Appearance is brown with a small and short-lived head. Nose is a wonderful example of a German-style Dusseldorf Alt; one of rich munich malt and perhaps a little caramel malt. Originally, I felt the beer lacked depth, but upon a re-tasting, I have changed my mind. Nice complexity, nice combination of malt. For the price, a well-crafted example of the style.

Very underrated beer. Pours golden orange with a nice off white head. Aroma is a little musty with a nice hop/malt balance. Flavor is also a very nice balance of hops and malts. Refreshing, drinkable with a clean, fast bitter finish. I am a big fan.

Draft and bottles. Multiple tastings. (previous tastings from memory) I often pick these up to keep on hand. This is a good ale. Nothing spactacular but very drinkable and one of the lower priced options in my area.

Northfield, MA. Amber body with medium head. Malty nose. Taste of caramel, some hops too. Sweetish. Nice clean finish.

A good ol’ reliable. Clean mild hop flavor with a little bit on the sweet side. This beer is a little on the watery side, but just barely.

Bottle that I finally opened from my trip to Vermont last year. Amber pour with a a white head. Aroma is all malt and notmuch else. Mostly caramel . Flavor has a touch more hops than you might expect from the nose and a good amount of caramel malt as well. Ok beer.
