Deep brown with a large beige head. Light roasty malts, sweet caramel, and light smoke. Earthy, toasty roasted malts, light molasses, and just a little chocolate. Medium mouth. Enjoyable and refreshing.

Refreshing lager and maybe a bit watery but still with flavor. Not too much bitternes for being a czech beer. Not much palate. An ok lager.

Appearance: Pours a clear, dark brown body with a smallish, ivory-colored head. Smell: A welcome chocolaty nose with notes of simple syrup layered over golden raisins with a background hint of roast malt. Taste: Sweet dark maltiness imparts tastes of dark caramel and cocoa powder. Again, there’s just a very minor roast character. Raisin fruitiness. Light touch of licorice. Mild herbal, spicy hops and bitterness. Additional chocolate flavor on the drying finish. Mouthfeel: Medium-thin body. Medium carbonation. Drinkability: As it’s flavorful yet remains light and relatively low in alcohol, for once, the idea of a Weekend at Bernie’s doesn’t sound so bad. Quite a nice dark lager, actually. I’ll admit to being a bit hesitant towards these odd imports from remote places in Eastern Europe, but I’ll cheerfully try any other Bernard products in the future.
