Commercial Description:
DIEBELS Alt is brewed according to the German Purity Law of 1516. Under this "Reinheitsgebot", only four ingredients are allowed: Barley malts, hops, yeast, and water. The dark-roasted special malt lends DIEBELS its unmistakable amber glow.

Dark and Delicious. For a dark, flavorful beer, DIEBELS is surprisingly light and drinkable - a beer you can enjoy all night long. It isn't bitter like many ales, and it doesn't have the strong aftertaste of certain imports.

On draft, Berlin. It has a much lighter body than other Alt Biers I’ve drunk, transparent, cola-ish brown. Small head. Usual things going on - dry with plenty of hops, roasted malt and a tar-like, tannine finish with some spiciness. Not bad, but not the best Alt I’ve drunk.

Can (50 cl) from some german gas station. Light copper with large fluffy off-white head. Caramelly and slightly nutty aroma with some herbal hops. Light to medium bodied, medium carbonation. Dry withmild bitterness, a bit metallic unfortunately.

Bottled 33cl. It pours a clean nut brown beer with a foamy tanned head. The nose is leafy, malty with notes of dried fruits, raisins, fudge and hops. A lot of crackers showing up accompanied by cellar-like characteristic. The taste is nicely malty. Leafy, buttery with a lot of fudge. Light bodied. Some almonds and figs. Decent hop presence. Mediocre lacing. Caramel and hop bitterness in the finish- a pleasant combination. Flawless and very nice.
