Description
The first record of the inn and brewery “Zum goldenen Engel” in Crailsheim from 1738 reads “annual production volume 150 buckets.” In 1877 George Fachs becomes the new owner of the brewery. The Fachs family still owns - now in the fifth generation - the brewery. In 1984 Engel becomes the first German brewery to bottle Radler. Since the turn of the millennium, Engel-Biermanufaktur has developed into a specialty brewery that regularly receives awards for its beers.

5.6/10 Appearance 6 Aroma 5 Flavor 6 Texture 6 Overall 5.5
(bottle) Clear, dark amber to brown colour with a foamy beige medium-sized head. Shy but not unpleasant aroma of dark malty, light toasty and fruity notes, shy hoppy background. Light-sweet flavour, toasty malty taste with toffee and soft notes of caramel; light to medium body, a tad too much carbonation. Toasty malty taste, slightly grainy with caramel; quite dry and bitter malty finish with a hoppy blend. Not bad but it has not much character.

(bottle) Clear, copper colour with a medium-sized foamy white head. Light sweet, slightly fruity and toasty malty nose, faint hints of hops. Sweet flavour, medium body, moderately carbonated mouthfeel. Malty, slightly grainy, faint fruity and caramelly taste; medium dry malty, light hoppy, somewhat herbal finish. Average Märzen, which fits rather to the soccer qualities during the tournament but not to the enthusiastic festivities around the Soccer World Cup 2006.
