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).

Taster at Das Stahl. Pours black, with a fleeting head. Straight up Thin Mint aroma, with a ton of mint and milk chocolate. Sweet and malty, with no real bitterness. Light and a little watery. Fun and well done.

Taster at the Hunstville Brass Tap. Pours dark brown, with a small, bubbly, beige head. The aroma is apple, fig, cinnamon, oak, caramel, and big grains. Sweet and grainy and a bit boozy. Medium body, lightly acidic, and bready. Fun and interesting.
