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.

Bottle looks wonderful, but I dont like that twist-off cap. Beer in the glass deep golden, nice head. Starts very spicy, wheaty, modest sweet. Hoppy-dry background, but spicy notes are dominating. Finish very well balanced, grasy-spicy, very drinkable. A great beer!
