With the exception of the Eagle Pride Pilsner, the Otis Alt is my favorite beer by Elk Grove Brewing Co Inc.

Thin white lace, wonderful dark amber color, hops and malt on the nose, Perfect balance of malty sweetness, hops, with slight bitterness in the taste, full bodied finish. Awesome!

Another winner by Bill Wood. He's a very nice guy, too... He's usually the one pouring on the Friday nights I go there.

A dark brown body with decent head retention. I was floored by the in your face noble hop aroma reminicient of sweaty socks, earth, and dog. Brilliant. It had a smooth beginning, a malty sweet and nutty middle, and an elongated firm hop bitterness on the back end. Not just an interpretation of a Dusseldorfer Alt, but the real deal.
