Alt-Bier

Pours clear with three inches or more of frothy, white foam. Retention is above average while lacing is a bit sticky. Aroma is definitely queued in on the malt. Caramel, toasty, and subdued bread malts each find time tantalizing the nose. The taste is quite good. Caramel sweetness gives way to toast and bread with a touch of bitterness for some balance while the finish carries the bitters with a roasted malt bite. Medium body with the maltiness almost seeming to be more. Good zing to the carbonation. This is a really nice beer. The twist to the style is well done and makes for a more interesting and complex beer. Definitely a good drinker with a bit of sweat on the brow probably making this quicker to the bottom of the stomach. Enjoy!
