About
It was more than 335 years ago that Jean de Chaine from Wallonia founded a brewpub in Mannheim which he called Eichbaum, the German translation of his family name. Today, this is one of the largest and most efficient breweries in Baden-Württemberg. It is the oldest company in Mannheim but also one of the most modern. State-of-the-art brewing and bottling technologies make for an annual output of 1.8 million hectolitres. More than 16 different beers and many different trading units make Privatbrauerei Eichbaum an attractive partner.

Bottle, 8%. Sour aroma. Clear brown colour. Stable brown head. The flavour is quite malty, some alcohol and a rough sourness. Good mouthfeel.

Bottle: Golden coloured, smaller fluffy head; grainy, grassy-bitter nose with a tinge of vegetables; quite dry bitter flavour, light bodied; grassy bitter finish with a grainy touch in the background. Only bitter, not aromatic.......poor!

Dieses Leichtbier scheint eher einem alkoholfreien zu gleichen als einem vollwertigen Pils. Typisch bleifreier penetranter Geschmack, hinten rum metallern werdend. Wenigstens scheint das Bier ausbalanciert, so dass der penetrante Geschmack gut verteilt wird und annehmbar wirkt. Meine Freude bei diesem Bier hält sich in Grenzen. Test vom 28.1.2007, Gebinde: Glasflasche Noten: 10,6,5,4,10,5 - 5,75

Bottle at the Düsseldorf Gathering. Clear, brown body. Lightly brown, creamy head. Sweet fruity aroma, but not totally in balance. Hoppy flaovur with some maltiness. Not very interesting.

(swing top bottle) Clear mahogany colour with a medium-sized, persistent foamy beige head. Sweet, dark-malty aroma, roasted with caramel and a tinge of alcohol. Sweet flavour, medium to full bodied (!) with a smooth carbonation. Strong malty taste, moderately roasted with caramel; sweet and slightly bitter malty finish with dried fruits in the aftertaste and a well-balanced alcohol, which is slightly warming. Decent strong beer.

Bottled at Monk’s Café, Stockholm. Deep golden,small firm head. Spicy hop aroma. Dry with papery malt character, medium body and coarse mouthfeel. Inky bitter finish. A straight forward pilssner without finesse.

Süßstoff enthalten. Im Antrunk unnormal zitronig, der Süßstoff wird deutlich. Dieses Süße Aroma verschwindet allerdings schnell, allerdings kommt danach nicht mehr viel, im Grunde außer einem Süßstoff-typischen Finish gar nichts. So sollte das nicht sein...
