3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
bottled. purple with a thin white head. surprising aroma reminded me of a u.s. barley wine - some pine and cookie dough. semi-sweet, some cocoa powder and a dry, grassy finish. i’m glad to see newer czech dark beers getting away from the style of the most popular, overly sweet staropramen/kozel type versions

Der Malzantrunk ist deutlich röstig und gleichzeitig süß. Trocken, dann röstiger, mittelintensiv und wenig süffig. Dazu in Teilen schokoladig, mit der Zeit intensiver, dadurch vollmundiger und besser. Die Süße ist zum Ende passend, sie wurde durch eine seichte Herbe dezimiert. Stimmiger Abgang mit deutlicheren Schokoladen- und Röstnoten. 10/9/10/9/7/9

Half-liter bottle, $1.50 clearance at Binny’s. Immediately a better start that the lite beer from this brewer I had yesterday. No skunk under the cap. Instead,some straight-up dark roast malt nose, though with a little too much cereal. Taste shows some cereal grain, too, but it starts to remind me of the European take on dark lagers, the ones just thick enough to be called dunkels like this here. Certainly quite hearty for a standard strength beer. For fun I used a Trumer "bullet" pils glass, and got a big glass full of dark foam. Sticky dark beer with occasional notes of sour and plum. Definitely give this one a try.
