The story behind it

The maker

Long Trail Brewing Company was founded in 1989 in Bridgewater Corners, Vermont, with a mission to brew affordable, high-quality craft beers. Inspired by the 273-mile Long Trail hiking path, the brewery has become a pioneer in the East Coast craft beer movement.

How it is made

Brewed in the green mountains of Vermont, this signature offering is crafted using a traditional Düsseldorf-style Altbier method. The top-fermenting yeast is cold-conditioned to yield the clean drinkability of a lager combined with the rich complexity of an ale.
