The invention provides an alkaline battery that does not allow generation of hydrogen gas. An alkaline battery comprises a positive electrode mixture, a negative electrode mixture containing zinc alloy powder, a separator that separates the positive electrode mixture from the negative electrode mixture, an alkaline electrolyte, a positive electrode can that accommodates the positive electrode mixture, and a negative electrode can that accommodates the negative electrode mixture and has a tin coating layer formed after chemical polishing with a mixed acid and surface treatment with a conductive polymer. The opening edge of the negative electrode can has a folded portion formed along the outer peripheral surface thereof to have a U-shaped cross section, and a gasket has a protruding portion formed on the central side and having a J-shaped cross section. The space formed between the inner peripheral surface of the folded portion of the negative electrode can and the central-side protruding portion of the gasket is no wider than the thickness of the negative electrode can, and the length of the protruding portion is at least ½ the length of the folded portion.
