Naturally cloudy with a fruity yeast note: caramelised organic barley malt and organic hops, left unfiltered so the yeast haze shapes the colour. It has 5.0% ABV. The name goes back to the Alpine Initiative of 1989, whose committee asked the brewery for a promotional beer in 1991. The brewery's own beer in Knospe quality followed in 1999.
