Altbier

Altbier is a traditional German beer that originates from the Düsseldorf region. It is known for its amber color and a rich, malty flavor, combined with a moderate hop bitterness. The name "Alt" means "old" in German, referring to its brewing method, which uses top-fermenting yeast at relatively cool temperatures. This results in a crisp, clean taste. Altbier is often enjoyed in a tumbler glass and pairs well with a variety of foods, making it a popular choice in German beer gardens. Its balance of malt and hops sets it apart from many other beer styles.
