    In this video I review three beers from the June 2024 LIDL Beer Festival:
    Perlenbacher Festbier 5.5%
    Perlenbacher Wheat Beer 5%
    Perlenbacher Radler Festbier 2.5%

    Whilst every style of beer explained may not be all the craft beer channel may not be about, looking in to how you've been drinking beer wrong your entire life, how beer is made, brewing your first homemade beer, talking to beer experts, identifying cheap vs expensive beers, price points, and answering beer questions from brewmasters is all a part of my real ale craft beer journey.

    Radler is German shandy - I'm not sure what you were expecting other than sweetness? Literally half beer, half lemonade, which if they started with a 5% beer would give you the 2.5% on the can.

      Certainly wasn’t expecting it to be “not sweet” but I can only report my experience and with this it was just too sugary for my tastes. But as I said, many will love it I’m sure!

      @@TheCrumbyBeard I actually had one of these a few weeks ago. I thought it was pretty good and tested like a proper lager shandy from a pub where they haven't overdone the lemonade. Certainly miles better than any UK canned shandy.

      @@TheCrumbyBeard Radler is not a beer. It came onto the market to give people who cycle home a light taste of beer. A bike is called a RAD in Germany, a RADLER is a biker.

    I have had these and think they are superb value for money. You can pay 3 times the price for worse beer, but you can't pay less than these and find better.
    As you mentioned, they aren't the best beers in the world but they are very good indeed. As an example, the wheat beer is nicer than the budget wheat beer Lidl has in stock in its core range, their Petronus.
    Great review as always!

    Basically 50/50 cola and weizen beer. The Dunkel being my favourite beer anyway

      Perlenbacher beer tastes best in bottles and there's a new keg version out too for "Lidl" stores, but I can't find any locally yet. Also, "ALDI" sell Rheinbacher beer in bottles and it's available in 2 different varieties.

      So
I filmed a keg review. And then gave up as it’s literally identical to the Festbier can from this video 😂 all I’ll say is I think it’s slightly better out the keg however it’s not very carbonated so unless you have a machine to keep it conditioned it will go flat pretty quickly!

    I had a Belgian beer from this range, Similar to Leffe, but with a slightly stronger taste of cloves and sweeter aftetaste...it worked well, I find Leffe 6% a bit watery and bitter...the Lidl one is 6.6%!

    • @TheCrumbyBeard
      @TheCrumbyBeard  Pƙed 8 dny +1

      I think I got the slightly stronger one, pretty sure it’s 7% - Leffe in the UK is poor now so hopefully a viable replacement!

      @TheCrumbyBeard  Pƙed 8 dny

      I do enjoy Spaten, they didn’t have any in my store sadly but I’m fairly sure I’ve reviewed it before. I don’t rate it highly amongst the other big Munich breweries but in comparison to the rest of the world it is solid 👍

  • @Steeler-wg5zo
    @Steeler-wg5zo Pƙed 3 dny

    An alcohol content of 4.8 - 5.2% is perfectly adequate for a session-beer in Germany. After all, nobody here wants to 'shoot themselves out of the world' with strong beer. Of course, there are always people who act according to the motto 'half drunk is money wasted'.
