Rhinegold Red
An altbier in the Düsseldorf manner: fermented warm with ale yeast, then conditioned cold, which leaves clean edges despite the malt weight. It pours a clear ruby red. Caramel and bread crust dominate the aroma, with a darker toasted note sitting behind them. The palate is malt-forward and smooth, the sweetness held back rather than pushed, and a subtle earthy, faintly herbal hop character firms up the finish without any bite.
