A near perfect example of Alt

I was pleasantly surprised by the richness and complexity of the Alt. It was a borrowed recipe to which I added my own twists. Recommend this to anyone who likes German style beers.

This is a classic alt. Smooth, delicious and refreshing. It is somewhat similar to a Bock, but lower in ABVs.
