Notes: Source of the recipe is from Horst D. Dornbusch in the Homebrewers Association website (link below). Modified the hops and water to fit local availability.
https://homebrewersassociation.org/homebrew-recipe/beer-recipe-of-the-week-sticke-alt/
A "Sticke Alt" is a traditional, secret, stronger, and hoppier variant of Altbier originally brewed in Düsseldorf, Germany. Often considered a special treat for regulars, Sticke Alts have a higher alcohol content and may feature additional malt or hops compared to standard Altbiers, with some breweries producing special versions like the "Latzenbier".
Origin and Tradition:
A "Secret" Alt: The word "Sticke" is believed to come from the German word for "secret" or "hidden," referring to it being a special, small-batch beer not widely advertised.
A Special Treat: Sticke Alts were historically a special offer for loyal customers at brewpubs, rather than a regular offering.
Name Variations: While "Sticke" is the original name, some Dusseldorf breweries have their own unique names for these special stronger Altbiers.
Zum Schlüssel: Calls their seasonal version "Stike".
Ferdnand Schumacher: Names their special strong Altbier "Latzenbier".
Characteristics of a Sticke Alt:
Increased Strength: Sticke Alts typically have a higher alcohol by volume (ABV) than a standard Altbier, which usually falls in the 4.5-6% range.
Enhanced Hoppiness: They are known for being hoppier than regular Altbiers.
Fuller Body: They can be fuller-bodied, a result of extra malt.
Color: The beer's color can range from dark copper to light brown.
Brewing and Availability:
Limited Release: Because they are considered a special brew, Sticke Alts are often brewed in smaller quantities and released seasonally.
Variety of Styles: While some are aged in whiskey barrels for unique flavors, others are simply a stronger version of the base Altbier.
Availability: You might find Sticke Alts advertised with a subtle symbol at a pub, or available in limited releases. |
