Product Details

Pull up a stool and let Long Trail Brewery’s Altbier from VT surprise you — it wears a deep amber coat that hints at toasted caramel and biscuit on the nose, then opens into a rounded, malty center with just enough earthiness to keep it honest. You’ll notice gentle toffee and light roasted notes up front, a soft medium body that fills the mouth, and a clean, cool-conditioned finish that makes each sip easy to chase with another. The hops sit politely in the background — restrained and balancing rather than shouting — while a classic ale yeast character gives it subtle fruitiness and a focused, slightly dry finale at a sessionable 5% ABV. This is the kind of beer I reach for when the grill’s fired up or when roasted root vegetables and buttery starches are on the table; it’s familiar but with a thoughtful, old-world edge that feels modern Vermont all the same.

Perfect Pairings: Grilled barbecue, roasted vegetables, and creamy mashed potatoes.

Tasting Notes:
- Aroma: Toasted caramel, biscuit, and a hint of gentle fruit.
- Palate: Smooth malt backbone with light toffee and restrained hop balance.
- Finish: Clean, slightly dry, medium-bodied, very drinkable.
