If you’re like most people, you’ve always wanted to try a Smoked Altbier but didn’t know where to get it or how to light it. Don’t worry, we got you! This Altbier is a german hybrid ale, meaning it’s fermented warm like an ale and then cellared at a low temperature like a lager. Because of the low temp when cellared, it’s much easier to light and smoke. In addition, we used peated malt to create the smoked flavor you can really taste in the beer. It’s the same kind of malt used to make the smoky scotch whisky. If you try to light or smoke this beer you will be charged double and ridiculed mercilessly by everyone in the brewery.

Clear, brownish amber body; thin head. Sweet, malty nose; herbal. Roasted malt taste; rye; herbal; faint suggestion of smoke; mild hop bitterness. Medium body; smooth and silky on the palate; semi-sweet mouthfeel with a touch of dryness at the finish.
As the beer warmed, it grew richer and tastier. I didn't get a lot of smoke character but the owner confirmed rye was used in the mash bill. I will be back for a crowler of this at a later date.
