“Alt” translates to “old”, a tribute to the age of brewing before the emergence of lagers in the 16th century. Altbier is fermented using a traditional German ale yeast which produces clean and crisp flavors with mellow, fruit like undertone. This deep copper-colored ale is accentuated by a complex malt profile and a rich, noble hop character. “Sticke”, meaning brewers reserve, usually indicated a stronger flavor.
