Of all German beers, Uerige Alt has the highest content of bitter constituents. In spite of – or maybe because of – this, our legendary Altbier from Düsseldorf is full-bodied, aromatic, and agreeable.
Our top-fermented specialty has been brewed since 1862, and is made of barley malt, caramel malt, roasted malt, umbel hops, water – and our unique Uerige yeast.
Our Uerige Alt regularly ranks amongst the top ten beers of Germany. It has an alcohol content of 4.7% abv and a minimum shelf life of eight weeks.

330ml swingtop bottle from Vessel Beer Shop, Plymouth. Pours clear amber brown with a dissipating white head. Aroma: malty, bread, earthy hops. Taste: moderate malty, light bitter, caramel, toffee, herbal hop, perhaps the merest hint of banana esters. Medium bodied, soft carb, dry slightly harsh finish. Kind of like an English ESB but I prefer that style over this.
