Classic Alt from a one litre bottle. Creamy, yellowish white, pretty stable head, attractive pale amber, orange colour. Strong nutty and caramelly malts, soft and rounded, nicely perfumed with dried fruits and spicy German hops; firm finish, bit toasted with long, hop bitter finish.

Bottle shared with McTapps & MichaelAwesome. Pours slightly hazy amber with small white head. Dusty aroma with malty and hoppy notes and touches of yeast. Bitter, hoppy flavour, with dusty notes and touches of malt, yeast and raisins. Lingering, bitter aftertaste with touches of yeast and a little metal. A good Altbier, indeed.
