Paderborner Alt
The only top-fermented beer in the range follows the Düsseldorf type. It is dark, reddish brown to amber and clear, with a fine cream-coloured head. Aroma and taste are malty and fruity with a delicate roast note, followed by the dry, firm bitterness typical of the style. Soft water and an original gravity of 11.2 % keep it at ordinary strength despite the dark colour.
