Toasted brown with a loose tan fluff. Semi-sharp chocolate and coffee melds with a distinct nuttiness, toasted bread and light smokiness. Roasted and nutty from the start; mild caramel sweetness before a dry espresso finish. Stealthy, light; velvety with crisp carbonation.

Pleasantly dry, roasty and sessionable.

50 cl bottle, best before 5.2.2009.

On tap in prague, not my favourite of the czech darks but taste of smooth nutty chocolate, with dry aftertaste. Had in bottle today and decided it tastes better on a cold day

On tap in Prague. Nutty, malty, lots of grain. Sweet, a bit too dessert-like, but not at all bad. More for winter drinking, perhpas.

[Nitrokeg at the RISC Global Cafe, Reading] A hint of dusty, gone-off plain chocolate, but overwhelming flavour is a metallic bitterness. Some ash and sourness comes through in aftertaste, leaving a very dry mouthfeel, but overall this is pretty unpleasant. In all the court cases between the Czech Budweiser/Budvar brand and the giant A-B, we were all secretly rooting for the little guy, the Czech company. But in return for our support, they’ve gone mass market and this now tastes like grim, weak, macro swill. Thanks guys.

500 ml bottle. Deep brown color, big tan head. Aroma of roasted malts. Pretty light body, with more roasted malts and a suggestion of coffee. Not bad.
