3.4 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
’Altbier’ is a beer style usually only found in brewpubs in the US. I was thrilled to find this beer in a 6-pack! As a beer style, Alt is an ale that is fermented and aged at lager temperatures. This gives this beer the caramel and nut flavors of an amber ale with the smoothness of a lager. Bravo!!

Pours a nice reddish amber color. Nose is of caramel and nuts. Flavor is pretty good and balanced. Aftertaste is a little off, I think. Could use some more bitterness....of course, I say that about every beer. This one is good overall.

Pours a nice copper with a decent tan head. Sweet malty aroma, mostly caramel. Nice sweetness, easy to drink. Palate is a little thin and fizzy. OG has the bestest mom in the whole wide world! Thank her for me.

UPDATED: OCT 25, 2008 Bottle. Pours average amber with a thin body and a quickly receding head. Candied apple, strawberry cake, and nuts in the nose. Earthy malt flavors with a slice of cinammon and sugar toast with a malted apple finish. Decent mouthfeel. Not too shabby; lite and refreshing. Great accompaniment to ’’’’Deadliest Catch.’’’’

Bought this at a hole-in-the-wall beerstore in Vegas, just off the strip. I was expecting a straightforward friendly-but-dull amber-- and I was pretty blown away! Hazy orange-brown amber with a spicy butterscotch-caramel aroma. Lightly fruity with rich buttery malt and spices, this was a very flavourful beer. A little on the sweet side, but very good.
