Draught@Kaisla, Helsinki. "Bernard Special Dark". Dark ruby, creamy tan head, some lace. Crisp, lemony hoppy nose. Sweety, caramelly malty, brown sugar, a bit toasted. Finish is harsh malty.

(Bottled) Clear, dark ruby with a largeish, tanned, pretty quickly descending, lightly lacy head. Aroma of roasty-burned malt, and varying amounts of sulphur. Roasted-malty, lightly licoricey flavor with sulphur and a dry-ashy finish. Medium-bodied, quite foamy-carbonated palate. Not nearly as good as the draught version I’ve had previously. Full-bodied for a Czech lager, and quite balanced - but there’s no complexity, and the sulphur (amount varies by bottle) is quite distracting. (Draught@Hostina, Helsinki, was 7-4-7-4-15=3.7) Very dark brown color with a thick, creamy, tanned head. Slightly roasty, malty aroma with licorice hints. Malty, roasty-licoricey, salty flavor with some ashiness. Medium to full-bodied, foamy-carbonated but smooth palate. A very nice and enjoyable, full and balanced dunkel.

Cask@GBBF, 2006. Blackish beer with a reddish tinge and a strong brownish head. The aroma is yeasty and malty, and the flavour is watery and smokey. Overall a nice enough beer.

Draught, GBBF 06. Dark brown with a large beige head. Aromas are chocolate and weetabix malts, fruity and rich. Flavours are malty and moreish with chocolate. Some coffee roast malts character with good bitterness towards the finish. Simple but tasty and addictive.

Draught at GBBF 2006. Very dark brown, almost black colour with attractive lasting beige head. Charcoal dark malts. Served cold. Goodish malts choc/powdery coffee. It takes me back to Prague in April. Dark and nice. Bit empty in the mouthfeel. 3.2/5 Re-rate 500ml bottle from Tesco. Very dark brown/ruby. A lovely dark lager, rounded, full, good roasted coffee finish. I rather enjoyed it. Easy drinking with enough depth to be tasty.

Draught – GBBF. A black coloured beer with a whitish head. The aroma has some slight roast as well as a sweet malty, slightly German bock character. The taste is quite lactic. There is a little chocolate and caramel and a touch of burnt malt. A reasonably long tasty finish. Decent
