Altbier

The Altbier is a hybrid between ale and lager . Fermented ales are basically a smaller temperature range and matured for long periods of time at very low temperatures, as do the lager, this process allows the yeast to reabsorb unwanted components and provides clean character and soft, this classic variety . It is drunk in small vessels, about 20 cl.




Alt literal translation in German is "old" and the Altbier is the beer made the old-style manufacturing when it was common to find an ale, rather than the development of lager from spreading when temperatures began to be controlled more easily.



Long before producing lager, the typical German beers, ales are made. Not yet had the knowledge about the function of yeast fermentation and much less able to control the temperature of it to taste the brewmaster. Depended on the weather and, eventually, the storage place of production.



The Ales came first, when brewers did not know in a comprehensive way the role played by yeast. There was no scientific knowledge of them, not even the certainty of his existence. This was after the French chemist Louis Pasteur, between 1857 and 1863, proved that fermentation was caused by living microorganisms. These "natural contaminants" of the grains and fruits were identified as microscopic fungi called Saccharomyces cerevisiae.


time he reached the technological advance and could easily control the cooling and, therefore, the temperatures of the different stages of Lager and its star, the Pilsen style, almost took over the supply of beer on tap. However, in the Rhine River region in northwestern Germany, the beer remained faithful to the "old style" of work keeping the type beers ales, a style that carries 3,000 years old.

Thus on the banks of the Rhine are still developing Kölsch in Cologne and crossing the river in Dusseldorf Altbier.
