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.

MrManning (1942) - London, Ontario, CANADA - OCT 4, 2009
Bottle shared by Milos- A deep cola pour with a thin beige ring. Nose is coffee and hops, musty tobacco, some pit fruits. Tastes very coffee like with no sweetness whatsoever. Dry and hoppy with dark chocolate too. Surprisingly light bodied and super easy drinking. Very good. Thanks Milos!

Rustyham (1303) - Nashville, Tennessee, USA - SEP 28, 2009
Decent little taste with a hidden little coffee taste. I wouldn’t go out of my way for this when so many other nice schwarzbiers are available. Sampled at the 2nd Annual Treasure Coast Beerfest in Ft. Pierce.

Narnad (1136) - Wonder Lake, Illinois, USA - SEP 27, 2009
Sampled at Lundeen’s Brew Ha-Ha 2009. A dark brown-ruby pour with a thick off-white head. Aroma has a sweet caramel note, light toastedness and some mild roasted malt notes. Flavor is mostly caramel, toasted MO malt, light roasted malt, light grassy hop with an overall sweet profile. Palate is very thin but almost no carbonation. Overall the brew was kinda light but a decent brew.

Dark brown/black pour with a thin white head. Malt, toasted grain aroma. Flavor is grainy and bittersweet. Not bad, but not exceptional.

Rciesla (5500) - Exit 15W, New Jersey, USA - SEP 22, 2009
Bottle. Pours a dark brune body with a tan head. Very malty with chocolate and roasted malt character and a lighter caramel fruit body. Very thin and watery deters me from enjoying this more.
