COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
This copper colored German-style ale is highly hopped and has a medium body and malty flavor. No hop additions were made during the last 30 minutes of the boil. Norther Brewer and Spalt hops are used along with ample Munich malt for authenticity, although Magnolia's house strain of English ale yeast was still used (albeit fermented at a lower temperature and matured for a longer period). Ashbury Alt is crisp and smooth.

Clear golden with no head. Earthy aroma and taste with smooth caramel flavors and a mild bitterness.

CaptKirk (175) - Hephzibah, Georgia, USA - JUL 31, 2006
Deep red with a nice smell of hops. Decent amber. Like the fact they use local everything for their beer. Nice place, but small. Parking a BIG problem. Had to park 1/2 mile away to get there. The area is not good. Wouldn’t go at night.

Oakes (9997) - Gibsons, British Columbia, CANADA - FEB 21, 2006
Dark amber colour and reasonably rich, slightly earthy malt aroma. Has a slightly chewy note, with breadcrusty finish. Could use some hop attack for authenticity’s sake. This is really just an amber.

omhper (15600) - Stockholm, SWEDEN - FEB 15, 2006
Draught at the brewpub. Dark amber. Extremely fruity. Pineapple and cleaning agents jumps in my face. Sweet with raw, mellow mouthfeel. A sharp chemical vegetable finish leaves a burning sensation in the mouth.

Draft. Dark amber-brown-red with a nice beige head. Malt aroma. Malt and caramel flavors (though a bit light) ending with a touch of earthiness.

UPDATED: JUL 23, 2006 Deep red/purple. Vibrant, fextive flavor or grains, wheat, sweet musty farm-like nose and flavor. An excellent altbier.
