The name of this beer style comes from the German word “alt” meaning “old”. This refers to the aging that alts undergo since they ferment more slowly and at colder temperatures than most ales. Slow fermentation helps condition the flavors in Alaskan Amber, contributing to its overall balance and smoothness.

Draft at The Pound! in Brighton. Clear chestnut amber color with a finger of off-white head that lingers. Lovely caramel malt aromas with a light bitter hop note. Smooth with herbal hop and light pine with toasted caramel that lingers on the finish.

This amber poured just that, an beautiful amber colour with a creamy, off white head. Nice lacing. Scents include candy, caramel, dough and a little ripe fruit. First swig was smooth, creamy and delicious. Flavours of toffee, must and tea. Finish is malty with minimal hop bitterness lingering.

0.355l bottle many thanks to Lore. A bit opaque amber body with a thin beige head. Aroma and taste of orange zest, toffee, nuts, burnt sugar, toast, raisins and some apples. Kinda like a doppelbock with lower ABV. Tasty brew.
