Rittmeister - Orange Ale

Natural, bright orange lager with an original wort of 12.5% and 4.8% vol. alcohol. Pale ale and wheat malt provide the bright orange color and the light body. Warm fermentation with top-fermenting yeast produces the voluminous foam and intensely sparkling carbon dioxide. Hopping with Tettnanger and Cascade varieties, as well as the addition of orange and citrus pomace during wort boiling, creates the light aroma of orange, grapefruit and melon and ensures a balanced tartness. The moderate dry hopping with Cascade and Lemondrop during storage emphasizes the fruity-floral aroma.
