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.

Bottle, thx to KimJohansen. A clear, dark amber pour leaves a small, beige head. Quite alcoholic nose with caramel and a fruity touch. Sweet flavor with alcohol and caramel. Full-bodied and warming. The finish is sweet and alcoholic with a pleasant bitterness. A rather lousy one, way too alcoholic and the flavor isn’t wonderful either. 100814

500ml bottle shared with Skinnyviking at Berlin Bar in Copenhagen. Lasting, dense white head over a clear, dark golden body. Sweet malty aroma. Sweet pale malts in flavour. Clean on the swallow, but the mouth feel goes in the direction of cloying sweetness, 05.11.2010.

Bottle. A hazy, golden-orange beer with a dense, finger-thick off-white head that lasts. Lots of banana on the nose, and a good dash of cloves. Some notes of caramel, and some wheat. It gives a rather sweetish impression, which is confirmed when tasting it. Sweetness, banana, cloves and wheat blends with some hints of yeast. Medium body, a bit on the sweet side, the carbonation being like a typical hefeweizen, quite high that is, this one in the higher end of the scale. Medium lenght finish with banana, cloves and wheat. Overall, quite decent, but too heavy on the cloves, slightly too much carbonated and not as refreshing as the Schneider or Weihenstephan weissbier. 101105

bottle. clear dark yellow, small white head. flowery, citrussy sort of almost sourish aroma. what sweetness i get in the aroma is sort of sugarish. Can’t help but think this is a pretty bad macro lager. Flavor is very sweet, dry, sweetness is cheap macro sweetness, reminds me of yea’ cheap premium lager. Reminds me of years ago, travelling to southern europe and drinking whatever they have that is strong. At least the flavor in this one is not weak or watery. it’s just not tasty.
