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.

Õlle on selline jook, et iga uus kord kui klaasi või pudeli suule tõstad, siis leiad midagi uut, sõltuvalt tuhandest-miljonist pisiasjast, mis hetke olukorda mõjutavad. Seega piirdun iga õlle juures selle tekstiga.

500ml bottle [7.2% abv]. Clear, dark brown colour with ruby shimmer and small to average, creamy, moderately lasting, minimally lacing, off-white head. Grainy, strawy, minimally bready, malty aroma, hints of spelt, a touch of rye bread, pumpernickel, waxy hoppy overtones. Taste is minimally dry, sweet-ish, grainy, bready malty, a touch of treacle, pumpernickel, metallic overtones. Watery texture, smooth and soft, minimally dry palate, fien and soft carbonation. More dark coloured than convincingly dark malty, thin and watery, waxy and metallic off-flavours - definitely not good.
