A beer popular in Dusseldorf and its vicinity, the word ’alt’ or ’old’ refers to the traditional method of ale fermentation used prior to the introduction of the ’new’ lager fermentation. Our bronze colored version is well balanced between hop bitterness and malt flavors. A pleasant smoky finish rounds of this Alt. The beer is named after St. Adrian who was the patron saint of beer.

Draft at Shirlington Location. Poured a clear gold with a thick but quickly receding head. Flavor of hops and a caramel malt flavor. Slight sweet character to it.

An orange beer with a thin lazing beige head. The aroma is quite light with notes of fruit and yeast. The flavor is sweet with a crisp malt note combined with a nice hoppy profile, and with a slight citrus note in the end.
