Goal was also just up back then, that is right before it started going down a significant amount.

If you're entertained by attacking football and goals, then it's hard to beat these kind seasons and teams from the past 1927–28 in English football - Wikipedia
The least GA was 66 (in 42 games) and even the worst attack scored similarly 66 goals. Different tactics and systems, but even still, that's a lot of goals in every club's matches.
As for more recent teams, the 80's Real Madrid (Butragueno, Hugo Sanchez, Michel etc.) was a very entertaining team as well. Won 5 straight league titles and reached numerous CL semis too, while never concentrating on defence. I remember them losing first leg away matches in Europe, 4-1 or 5-1 or margins like that and still everybody was confident they would turn it around at home. And they did.

That's a wave of no more than four or so clubs though, up there with the likes of Frankfurt or Mönchengladbach. A side like Mainz would be expected to achieve European qualification in France, in Germany they can be happy to avoid relegation.
