Description
Founded by local home brewers in 2009, Straight to Ale has quickly grown to become one of Alabama’s largest production breweries.

In the summer of 2016 we opened our new 55,000 square foot facility at Campus 805, reclaiming a long vacant Middle School campus on the edge of downtown Huntsville and turning it into a thriving community of breweries, bars, restaurants, and local shops. At this new location, we expanded to include cider and mead production along with distilled spirits (Shelta Cavern Spirits), a scratch made kitchen (Ale’s Kitchen), a pinball arcade and pool room (Ronnie Rayguns).

Shared at Ale Alpharetta. Dark, ruby brown, with a bubbly, beige head. The aroma is butter toffee, a little tobacco, cardamom, and milk chocolate. Very sweet, with a strong savory spice. Heavy body, grainy, thick, and pleasantly sharp. This is a strong and interesting beer.

Lovely dark amber color with a bit tan head. Looks really inviting. Dried fruits, some yeast, toffee, plums and raisins in the aroma. Medium + body. Tad sweet and a moderate bitterness. Average to soft carbonation. Plums, dried fruits, toffee, yeast and raisins in the flavor. A bit to much yeast.

Not a Heller Bock. Dunkler Bock is what this is. Clear, deep mahogany body that throws up a huge tan head. Lots of molasses, and brown sugar aroma. The flavor is sweet and nutty. All malt here, no hops anywhere as it should be. Bock on Ms Baker whoever you are.

Can. Orange juice, malt , and orange peel/pine aroma. Slightly hazy golden yellow with nice off-white head. Sweet candied sugar/orange toffee malt and moderately bitter grapefruit peel/quinine flavor. Good body. A bit rough. Here’s to Sam and Ham plus Albert II - the first primate in space.
