(512) Brewing - (512) Amber

(512) Amber is a German-style altbier that is fermented cooler than typical ales and cold conditioned like a lager. Alt means “old” in German and refers to a beer style made using ale yeast after many German brewers had switched to newly discovered lager yeast. This ale has a very smooth, yet pronounced, hop bitterness with a malty backbone and a characteristic German yeast character.
