Product details

Alt refers to an old-school, top-fermented style of brewing ale rather than a relatively modern bottom-fermented lager. Altbier is especially associated with the city of Dusseldorf. Alts are a bit difficult to explain to the uninitiated - kind of like a hoppy Oktoberfest? A very malty pale ale? You'll just have to try a glass of coppery-brown, rich, caramelly, and bitter ale to get the idea.

Excellent mild yet rich brew

We just popped our 1st bottles yesterday; 6 weeks in the making. It was pleasantly mild and yet with a smidge of hoppiness and hint of bitters. Very unique, easy beverage! I used the dry yeast option-rehydrating b4 pitching with perfect action and kept 1st and 2nd fermentation at a 64F temp. This is a keeper!

A very good wheat beer, my wife’s favorite. easy to brew easy to drink.

Deep Flavor

Little hoppy at first but settled down and attained a deep flavor after about week following kegging. Will definitely brew again.

Really good results with recipe kit

Excellent beer

One of the best indications I can think of for a good beer is how long it’s stays around after bottling day. We had some friends over after the beer had been in the bottle two weeks and it virtually disappeared. Everyone loved it. It wasn’t too hoppy and went down smooth.
