Average Alt

Altbier is a beer style that is not very common in Norway. Pinkus Münstersch Alt is one of the exceptions, and I was really excited to try it out.

As I filled my glass, I was a bit disappointed. The beer was pale with a medium sized head and aromas of yeast and sourness. In the mouth I felt gooseberries, yeast and some cherries. The finish had caramel and mint. I found the beer OK, but it is not something I will buy frequently.
