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.

50cl bottle, twist top (5.0% ABV): BB 20th Aug 2021. Drank at home on 7th Feb 2021. Red hue to the deep amber/brown body, fast fading off-white head. Strong caramel/malty nose and taste, overpowering the yeast and wheat you'd usually find in this style, it's pretty sweet too. As the beer warms a little there is a faint 'Hefenwiess' banana and wheaty/yeasty feel, but the sweetness is the overriding feature of this.

500ml screw top bottle (as Kellerbier @ 5.4% ABV): BB 19th Nov 2021. Drank at home on 7th Feb 2021. Mini-haze to the light golden body, thin white head. Not a lot going on aroma wise; mild herbal and grainy esters if you sniff long and hard enough. Taste is also grainy with a herbal twist; not enough to get excited about though. There is also a hint of 'age' flavour wise (cobwebs and mustiness). Pleasant enough Kellerbier (I'm no expert) but nothing to make it stand out from the crowd.
