Advent calendar 2024 - Day 8
On Day 7 of Advent I had a strong Imperial Stout and ran a small experiment.
You can always get to my post for the previous day of Advent and the post for the next day through the links in every post.
Back in November Lynn and I spent an afternoon at 5 Stones Artisan Brewery in New Braunfels, Texas. In addition to enjoying a few tasty and fresh brews I brought home a mixed up six pack to enjoy later. Their Braunfels Altbier was part of that mixed up six pack.
An altbier is a style that originates from the German Rhineland. Most altbiers have a dark copper color but they usually have a flavor similar to lighter lagers. An altbier is a nice alternative to the stronger malt forward Marzens. My prediction from yesterday turned out to be correct: I did enjoy a tasty brew today.
Can’t wait to see what I had for day 9? Well, quit living in the past and see what I had on Day 9 from Meanwhile Brewing Company.
