Harmony between taste and beauty - Dark beer is the traditional product of the Royal Brewery of Krušovice and for more than 100 years the production of this beer has not stopped. The beer has a full, sweet caramel taste and a light hop flavour. The high quality of the raw ingredients assures the excellent taste of the beer. There are several types of malt, natural spring water from the Křivoklát Wood and hops from the Žatec area.

Brown pour. Nose of roasty malts, caramel. Flavor is a bit thin, but good caramel and malt flavors...easy to drink as well.

ExNihilo (5) - SWEDEN - DEC 12, 2010 does not count
500 ml can, Systembolaget, Sweden. Appearance: Small short-lived head, slightly creamy. Clear brown body, almost black. Aroma: Moderate maltyness with faint bread and caramel tones. A little hop. Taste: Sweet initially with a little bitterness at the finish. Faint hop and caramel tones. Palete: Light to medium body, quite watery but still some creaminess. Soft carbonation. Conclusion: A nice beer, nothing special but great if you want something simple.

Spelt (206) - East Kingston, New Hampshire, USA - DEC 11, 2010
Deep crimson to brown. Thin, short-lived tan head. Aroma strong with molasses and raisins. Decidedly sweet and carmely. Some roastiness. Maybe even some dark chocolate. Creamy texture, nicely carbonated. Long, long malty finish. Would enjoy just a touch more body and bitterness but certainly not flawed by this.

NJJereme (365) - Saint Petersburg, Florida, USA - NOV 22, 2010
Bottle. Pours a dark brown, almost black color with a decent sized off-white head. Aromas of roasted malts and perhaps a hint of caramel and butterscotch. Roasted flavor is very apparent when it hits the tongue. Tingly mouth feel. Medium bodied. Not bad.

Bierkrug (1645) - Idar-Oberstein (In Senegal), Rhineland-Palatinate, GERMANY - NOV 22, 2010
500 ml bottle in Germany. Is a black color with a full tan head with a nice lace. Aroma is burnt malts and carmel. Taste is almost that of a smoked beer. Has some chocolate and cherries in there as well. Palate is a full swing into a bitter blackness. Good beer.
