There’s more to altbier than the yeast, This lacks the color and roast malt of the German style. This comes off more as a heller bock. Hard to rate this as an alt. Malt is at the forefront in both the aroma and taste, cracker, bread, some sourdough. Short finish.

Pours a hazy orange with a foamy bone head that settles to a partial film on top of the beer. A foamy lattice of lace coats the glass on the drink down. Smell is of malt, grain, biscuit, and slight citrus like aromas. Taste is much the same with malt and citrus like flavors on the finish. There is a mild amount of hop bitterness on the palate with each sip. This beer has a lower level of carbonation with a slightly crisp mouthfeel. Overall, this is a pretty good beer that is easy to drink and is an interesting mixture of styles.

First I don't think this should be listed as an Altbier since an altbier is a style of German Brown ale, and this is listed as an Alt Pale Ale. Appearance is pretty typical of a pale: bright, transparent amber color with energetic effervescing. Thick sticky white head clings to the glass. Smell is pretty benign, mild malt and some dank hops. Taste is a decent balance of malty and hoppy. Bread, lemon grass, and light peppery finish. Definitely some unique qualities to the malt that you don't see too often. Light bodied, high carbonation. Overall solid pale with some good malt presence, very different from most altbiers. Solid, but probably not going to be a go to for me.
