[@dus1213]

Glad you like German beer so much! The first one was "Kölsch", a kind of beer exclusively from cologne. "Kölsch" translates to cologne'ish. You are supposed to drink it from 0.2l glasses, Früh is one Kölsch brand, it means early. Many Germans living outside of cologne make fun of Kölsch, because its drank from small glasses and tastes very light. The German purity law actually is the oldest still existing food law in the world. We manage to do a lot with these 4 ingredients, aren't we? :D Radler isn't "woman's beer". Radler roughly translates to bicyclist. Its beer mixed with soda, like we also sometimes mix Pils with Sprite, you'll get roughly the same taste. Its nice when you go for a hike during warm summer, or if you plan to do sports. There is a German saying: "Radler ist kein Alkohol" - Radler is no alcohol. Krombacher is the biggest privat brewery in Germany. Its from a little town called Krombach, and actually I'm from there :D. The tower on the logo exists and is a restaurant. I really enjoy to see something from my little region being drank all over the world. However, it tastes much better if its fresh from the tab. The brewery has many varieties of beer, and there is also international tourism happening to it. People come from all over the world, you pay like 20 bucks, you get to see the brewery and then you have 2 hours of free drinking with excellent service and food served aside. Brilliant experience! In the 2010ers (maybe earlier) the German brewery's created more Radler-like beers (Radler is the German OG-Beer mix, but there was a less popular cola and beer mix around, too). The Schöfferhofer Grapefruit is a wheat beer, which are sweeter in nature, with some grapefruit soda stuff. The beer mix-stuff btw. isn't allowed to be called beer in Germany due to the purity-law. So we call the "Biermischgetränk" - Beer mix drink. The Franziskaner is a very solid German wide sold Weißbier (White Beer), which is also an unfiltered wheat beer, the Bavarian call it white beer instead of wheat beer. I also like to drink it outside on warm summer days, when you call it a day. Wolters is from the more northern parts of germany. Like the northern and western parts from Germany tend to drink more Pilsener, the south is more a wheat beer region. Like Warsteiner, Krombacher and Wolters both come from the western part of Germany. DAB is a more international brewery, i think they concentrate more on export, but i could be wrong here, dont know to much about them. DAB is the "Dortmunder Aktien-Brauerei" - Dortmunds Incorporated Brewery. Soooo, there are 1492 brewerys in germany with 8135 different beers.. Which ones come next? :D

Stiegl Radler is Beer with Sprite or 7up. Nice for a hot day. The Kölsch is a typical beer only brewed in the Cologne area. You drink it quickly and chilled. They are normally served in 0.2L (12cui) glasses to keep the beer fresh. When you’re out drinking and the last sip is in the glass, the bartender will automatically serve you a new one, so that you don’t run dry. If you’re done drinking you put your beer mat on the glass so that the bartender knows you do not want an other one 😊

"Wolters" - thats from my hometown. This is definitely an original product from Germany, because it is only made in Braunscheig.

Even here you can only get that regionally. Warsteiner and Krombacher is standard beer like your Miller´s in US.

The wheat beer is top fermented, so the yeast is on top and makes the beer cloudy if unfiltered.

[@r6vinaros556]

Kölsch has a special fermentation process. The "top fermentation" fermentation takes place at higher temperatures between 18°C and 22°C and the yeast floats to the top. Typical types of beer for top-fermented beers are ale, Kölsch and wheat beer. The advantage of top fermentation is the possibility of fermentation at room temperature. Kölsch can only be brewed in the area of the city of Cologne, Cologne=Kölsch. There are currently 30 types of Kölsch. The white and red painting on the can are the city colors of the city of Cologne. Kölsch is usually served in small glasses so that it is always fresh and cool, in a Kölschen brewery the cellar replaces the empty glass with a full one without asking, only when you put your beer mat on the glass does the waiter stop serving you.

1) Important information (!!!): Stiegl is not a German but an Austrian beer brand from Salzburg. I personally prefer their "actual" beer to their Radler. 2) Regarding "Früh": The German "ü" (an umlaut, which by the way exists in several languages) is exactly pronounced like the French "u". It sounds like something between the English "ee" and "oo". If you struggle with the pronunciation of the "ü", better stick to "ee" instead of "oo"! This will be comprehended a lot better. There is actually no equivalent of the "ü" phoneme in the English language except for at least one variety I am aware of: This exception is the Scottish "oo". Pronounced with a Scottish accent the word "good", for instance, sounds like "gühd" for a native German speaker. By the way, "Früh" means "early (morning)", but in this case it's also the last name of the brewer dynasty producing this beer. 3) Regarding "Schöfferhofer": The German "ö" (which also exists in a lot of languages) sounds exactly like the "e" in "her", the "i" in "first" or the "u" in "turtle". 4) Wolters is pronounced "Volters". Remember the car brand "VW" being pronounced "FauVeh (FowVay)"? As always this was a very entertaining video. I had a lot of fun. Thank you and cheers... er... Prost! 😊

Some suggestions: Wheat Beer (also called Weizen) has to be poured completely. For the last bit you stop pouring and kind of stir the bottle to get the yeast out of it and pour it on top. Many people like drinking Weizen mixed 50/50 with 7Up/Lemonade, with Cola (extra points for adding a shot of cherry liqueur, so called Kirsch Goaß) or even with Banana Juice (yes Bananenweizen is a thing).

Bavarian wheat beers are brewed with top-fermenting yeast. In addition to barley malt, wheat malt is also used in varying proportions for the mash, often up to 70% wheat.

Hefeweizen, "yeast wheat" Unless a wheat beer is filtered there is the yeast in it which makes it cloudy. Filtered Wheast beer is usually sold under name of Kristallweizen, Crystal Wheat becaused it is clear. Edit: I prefer Paulaner and Schöfferhofer over Franziskaner. You can get Schöfferhofer also as regular and alkohol free wheat beer. This is what I buy most, Schöfferhofer and Paulaner alcohol free, for Paulaner there is also alcohol free version with the lemonade. schöffer hofer has Grapefruit and what I think taste even better is Kaktusfeige, cactus fig. Radler or Alsterwasser is a mix of lemonade and beer. There is a boom in that in germany for the last years. Schöfferhofer was kind of an early adopter with grapefruit and cactus fig. Now you can get theses mixes with all kind of soda, mango, rhubarb, elderberry, blood oranges.

Wikipedia says: 'Pilsner is used in northern Germany and the mixture is usually called Alsterwasser, or Alster for short, named after the alleged color of the Hamburg water of the same name. The use of the term Alster is not uniform outside northern Germany. The terms Alster and Radler are often used interchangeably; sometimes Alster beer is understood to mean beer with lemonade and Radler is beer with orange lemonade, and sometimes the other way around.' Ok, I've learned something new today - still taste good - PROST! Greetings from northern germany ♥️

I always find it funny how you describe a beer with a big head as a bad pour. It really makes you realise how different the ideals of the USA and Europe/Germany are. In Germany at least, a good head is important, especially for wheat beer, as it prevents the carbon dioxide (the natural carbonation of the beer) and flavours from escaping quickly; it is a kind of protection against the beer quickly becoming stale.

The cloudy look comes from the beer being unfiltrated and the yeast used in brewing still floating around in it. It's most common in Weizenbier/Weissbier (=wheat beers), although there's a filtrated variant called Kristallweizen (crystal wheat). Wheat beers are most common in bavaria, while further north it's mostly with barley (Pils, Kölsch)

the yellow white cann is stiegl radler. "Radler " is like a cycler in english. in old times the working class familys do weekend vacations and do pauses in restaurans and caffees. there they become a beer lemonade mixed drink (in most examples 50:50 or 60:40 % beer:lemonade mixed) with lower alcohol level

a nice iso tonic drink and best for summertimes

[@danvernier198]

The ones you categorize as "different" are made with wheat rather than barley. This makes the beer more sour and is popular in southern Germany and as a refreshing summer drink.

"Kölsch" type beer is strictly regulated in regards to the brewing process and ingredients, and the term Kölsch itself also has a protected geographical indication within the European Union. Only breweries which abide by the official rules, and which are located no more than 50km from the German city Köln (English name: Cologne) may sell their product as Kölsch. This is of course similar to how Champagne is regulated. "Früh" is a family-owned company (5th generation) which has been brewing Kölsch since 1904. If you ever journey to Cologne, I can recommend visiting the Früh Brewery near the Kölner Dom cathedral.

[@arnebollsen]

Pedro is the true German beer drinker among you, he knows how to open a beer bottle with 1000 things. Only German beer drinkers have developed the art of opening a beer bottle with anything. This is because in Germany you can drink alcohol anywhere and you don't always have a bottle opener with you.👍😁

[@peterkralt2478]

Tip from a Dutchman, if you are in need for an object to open your bottle with then you don't have enough beer! All you need to open a beer is the next beer!

So nice how the children were kept busy in the background. Obviously an intact family where the little ones are not simply kept quiet in front of the TV. BUT: you can't compare wheat beer and Pilsner. They are worlds apart. And then there's Früh-Kölsch. The only thing missing is Alt from Düsseldorf, or Lager or Export. Yuck... yikes. The alcohol content is irrelevant. It's all about the taste! I forgive you for the disposable cans. In Germany that would be a "no go" ... but in the USA ... so far away ... the empty bottles would probably never make it back to the brewery to be refilled anyway.... so "disposable" is actually the better choice in this case.

[@Buphido]

If you liked the Früh, I recommend trying either a Reissdorf or a Schreckenskammer, if you can find them. They‘re both Kölsch, as well, from the same region of Germany, but are the generally more popular choices among the majority of adults afaik (Früh for reference is often considered a good starter for young adults). Schreckenskammer in particular is noteworthy, as it orginates from this small pub in Cologne maintaining its traditions as one of the oldest breweries of the city. The beer itself was picked up by the Früh brand, whose main product you‘ve already tried, but I don’t know if Schreckenskammer is available in the US.

@@IWrocker A little foamhead is very much wanted when you pour a beer. a thumb wide is a good rule of thumb (no pun intended...) half beer and half foam (as you had in earlier videos) is too much. From what is visible Pedro´s foam/beer ratio is pretty much spot on, given the tiny size of the glasses.

[@SmokeyTheHeir]

@@IWrocker actually the foam acts as an insulator. It prevents the beer from loosing it’s carbonization to fast, thus retaining the refreshing sensation

In the previous videos it was too much foam. You can make the foam two fingers thick. With the small glasses I will not worry too much about foam

So the Weißbier you tried ist a special Kind of beer and not the usual one. If you want to try a regular south German beer you need to look for a so called „helles“ some good/big breweries are Augustiner , Paulaner, Chiemsees, Tegernseer, Weihenstephan, Bayreuther, Stuttgarter Hofbräuh, Berg and Gold Ochsen (my favorite one it’s from my home town). I don’t know if you can find any of those in the USA but if you do you really need to try them. But for the best beer you need to visit Germany and try the beer fresh from the barrel. That’s the best way to drink beer.

[@scottevil4531]

Though Radler is normally made with Sprite/7up, I think if you´ll try to recreate it in the us it would be a good idea to make lemonade yourself with carbonated water and mix that with a more bitter beer. (That way you avoud the common problem in the US of it being to sweet) Try it in the summer after a workout or hard work in the garden. Its just the best to refresh.
