COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Origin of name: the name of the beer comes for the mutual cooperation between the brewery and the rock group Kern. Taste: Kern combines the classic bitterness of light beers with the sweeter caramel taste of dark beers. These characteristics are not obtained by mixing ready made beer. It obtains its taste by mixing various types of malt during the brewing process. Kern has a reddish to granite color and a pleasant hops to slightly caramel fragrance. It is produced in the attempt to satisfy every beer consumer who likes to combine light and dark beers.

ElDesmadre (934) - Mikołów, POLAND - DEC 9, 2012
Draught at House Of Beer, Krakó. Oh well, if you’re bound for a Czech beer with a major flaw, then this flaw will be a bucketload of diacetyl. Cocoa butter mixed with caramel in the aroma and flavour, weak and watery body. Bland and way too much butter in this one.

Flavour is mild toasted malts, some caramel malts, some grassy hops along with mild floral notes. Quite sweet maltyness, even though it’s only 4 %.
