PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an alkaline battery with good heavy-load discharge characteristics and capable of controlling gas generation in a battery. SOLUTION: The alkaline battery is provided with a cathode, a gelatinous anode containing zinc alloy powder, and an anolyte consisting of alkaline aqueous solution. The zinc alloy contains 100-2,000 ppm of Al, 50-125 ppm of Bi, and at least a total of 1-50 ppm of either Ca or Mg. The alkaline battery is characterized by a moisture content in a battery system of either 0.250-0.300 g per 1 g of a cathode active material or 0.600-0.700 g per 1 g of the zinc alloy powder.
