Uerige Alt

Brewed by Uerige Obergärige Hausbrauerei
Style: Altbier
Düsseldorf, Germany

Serve in Kölsch/Altbier

Serving: 330 ml. bottle from State Line Liquors. It pours a ruddy brown with a small, white head. The nose has notes of noble hops, bread, and a slight nutty note. The flavor has a good bit of dark bread, some caramel, and some nuttiness with a decent bitter backbone for balance. Light to medium bodied with average carbonation leading to a medium, dry finish. Certainly a worthwhile session brew.

draft@Chez Moeder Lambic: brown/amber colour with slightly tanned/white, persistent creamy head, tastes of slightly roasted malt, lesser dissolved toffee & burned brown sugar flavours mixed with spices, minor hop kick, very enjoyable spicy bitterness

Pours a clean ruby copper with one finger of sandstone tan head. Nose is lightly grainy and toasted with a mild caramelly sweetness. Flavor is kind of bitter, toasted grain with a light sweetness. Light bodied with a medium carbonation.

Bottle - interesting, smells of malt and and springtime. Is mildly bitter without being boring or bland. Refreshing.

Pours dark brown from bottle with a fairly large fluffy white head that disappears quickly. Nice spicy nose with big malt and some hoppiness. The taste combines bitterness with big malt flavor that isn’t cloying. This beer certainly grabs you by the lapels and plants a large kiss in your lips.

Tap @ Moeder Lambic. cuivre, col épais beige. Nez et palais avec une subtile touche d’aigreur fruitée., fini est sec, palais garde une touche de grains, malt donnant une bonne note de caramel pour une bière qui reste légère en bouche.

Maple syrup and malt aroma. Cloudy ochre, full of fine floating sediment, thin head. Tart initially but mellows to a nice woody flavor. Subtle tangy walnut finish. Little complexity, but distinct and very well done.
