Tuesday's tasting will be...

...North German Altbier.* Don't get it confused with Düsseldorf-style Altbier, which is actually quite different. You can read the BJCP's style guideline for North German Altbier here.

If you're interested in sampling some North German Alts, as well as (hopefully) plenty of homebrewed libations, join us for our monthly meeting this Tuesday (Oct. 20) at 8pm at the Bridgeport VFW at 32nd and May. Visitors are always welcome.

*I should note that North German Altbier is a fairly difficult style to track down Stateside, and at this point I've failed to find any examples at two of the usual suspects, so there's a chance we may substitute a different style at the last minute. Sorry, but them's the breaks!
