Review: 50cl Can of St. Gotthard Lager: ABV: 4.8%
A Swiss Aldi special
Very, very clear golden colour with a massive frothy head on pour. All looks pretty good, head nestles nicely on top. Does die as expected for a cheap lager. Slight lacing.
Smells good, of faint malts, and the yeast
Taste is not too bad, some very nice mouthfuls. Malts mostly. And that’s as much as you are going to taste really.
Very easy to drink, a very smooth beer
A bit metallic in the end.
Good but a bit acidic/stringent in the aftertaste
It is ok as lagers go, smooth and not bad for the cheap price from Aldi
The brewery was founded in 1886 by Johann Kienle, however, the brewery wasnt known as Erdinger Weißbräu until 1949 when its owner at the time, Franz Brombach, changed it. The current owner is Franz Brombach’s son, Werner Brombach who has been in charge since 1975, and under his guidance he helped establish Erdinger as the successful nationwide and international wheat beer product of today.
So lets try this “true classic of Bavarian wheat beer culture”, as stated on their own website!
This is my second beer reviewed from the Breton brewery Britt (Brasserie de Bretagne), formerly of The Brasserie du Trégor, who merged with Britt in 2010. 
Coming in a relatively boring looking bottle that doesn’t stand out. 
Lot of taste, not bad, can get some fruit…..bananas 
Delirium tremens (also called “The DTs”, “the horrors”, or “the shakes”) is a severe form of alcohol withdrawal that can cause confusion and delirium. Delirium tremens is mainly caused by a long period of drinking being stopped abruptly and can usally last from a day to three days. People may hallucinate and can be appear delirious and restless. Physical effects may include shaking, shivering, irregular heart rate, and sweating. Occasionally, a very high body temperature or seizures may result in death. Delirium tremens is an emergency condition and should be treated seriously. DT occurs in 5–10% of alcoholics, and death can occur in anything between 15% and 40%, depending on the treatment given or lack of it, showing that Alcohol is one of the most dangerous drugs to experience withdrawal from. Great!
Some people call the DTs “seeing the pink elephant”. A “pink elephant” is the stereotypical image of what drunks see when they get the shakes and possible seizures from lack of booze. From Wikipedia we get “The term dates back to at least the early 20th century, emerging from earlier idioms about snakes and other creatures. An alcoholic character in Jack London’s 1913 novel John Barleycorn is said to hallucinate “blue mice and pink elephants”. So there in lies the answer to why The Huyghe Brewery put a pink elephant on the label of its Delirium Tremens beer, in case you were wondering! In a foil wrapped bottle. 
On pour I get a golden yellow looking appearance with some nice lively carbonation going on, bubbling along. A nice foamy white head, looks good, but does go flat after a short while…..eventually. 
Very sweet taste, not very appealing to me at all, don’t like it to be honest 
A definite slow burner 
The Ratsherrn Brauerei (Alderman Brewery) is a medium-sized company, with a 50 year tradition, but is in its present form since 2012. It is located in the Sternschanze district in the heart of the portal city of Hamburg, Germany. Brewing has been going on here in this part of the city since 1869.
Got a strong initial taste hitting the senses, the spices I guess.
