Commercial Description:
This golden-red hued ale is brewed with just a touch of wheat for the perfect balance between smooth bitterness and malty sweetness.

Nutty, malty aroma, with some yeast. Little cloudy. Very malty flavor, but with a slightly yeasty background. I suspect a wild yeast contamination, otherwise, it would be a very good beer.

Since I know Horst Dornbusch myself, I know that he uses the best ingredients to brew a Altbier you could sell in every German city!

Very nice alt-style brew. Nice malty aroma and toasty/nutty flavor that is very smooth. Balanced with a subtle hop bitterness and sweet drinkability.
