Kovaško Temno

Brewed by Domača Pivovarna / Hotel pod Roglo
Style: Schwarzbier
Zreče, Slovenia

Serve in Dimpled mug, Lager glass, Stein

From a PET bottle that ogivlado brought from the brewpub (thanks!)
Poured a very dark red-brown body, possibly murky with a small off white head that went away relatively slowly. Fine sweet yoghurty nose with distinct notes of milk caramel. The taste is light again, sweet, roasty, toffeeish, some caramel again, light sweetness. Very light background hopiness. Ok, maybe not all that complex but certainy an interesting Slovenian dark beer.

UPDATED: NOV 30, 2009 Draught at the brewpub.
Brown coloured, medium sized off-white haed, mild vinous malty nose. Also slight vinous malty, mild coffee and surprisingly woody notes. Touch of smoke and fruits in the finish. Much better than my first rating.

take away PET bottle. -dark coloured with minimal head, light chocolate and strong caramel aroma with unpleasant soury finish. 4-2-4-2-9=2.1
