Riptide is a malty German-Style altbier, dominated by pilsner/munich malts, and balanced by additions of noble hops.

Draft at the source. This one is pretty much on style, similar to the altbier I’d have in Germany. Body is a bit light.

Draft at the brewery. Pours a clear rust color with a large creamy offwhite head. Decent head retention. Aroma of toffee, apples, cinnamon, toasted malts and faint hops. The taste is toffee, toasted malts and spice. Medium bodied. Nice.

Draft. Toffee malt and hay aroma. Amber with moderate head. Lightly smokey toffee malt and hay flavor. Mildly bitter finish. Light but nice flavor.
