COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Editor's note: Also ratings of the Swedish 3.5% ABV version should be entered here.
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.

ClubGonzo (1736) - Bergen, NORWAY - JAN 6, 2012
Bottle. Near-clear deep brown, ruby-hued body, big off-white foamy head. Nose is caramel, grains, wort and hints of coffee. Taste is roasty malts, nuts and hints of smoke and caramel. Very nice for its style; particularly considering its low ABV.

gramity (520) - Edmonton, Alberta, CANADA - DEC 15, 2011
Pours an opaque dark brown with just a hint of ruby, and thick tan head that shrinks quickly to fair lacing. Try as I might, it was difficult to detect much of any aroma at all. Although body was thin and slightly watery, there was a nice chocolate-caramel flavor with a hint of malty sweetness. Finish was smooth and fairly long lasting. Great compliment to my breaded fried cheese at the local Czech Bistro.

Kurki (15) - FINLAND - DEC 9, 2011
While I certainly prefer this beer to the other Czech dark beers that are available (Kozel, Staropramen, Bernard), it is brewed in the style of a German Dunkel and therefore must be compared to those. It comes up rather short along those lines, somewhat watery and characterless.

Mörkbrun öl. Fina dofter av nöt och frukt. Smakar detsamma där nöten dominerar. Lĺng fin eftersmak.

Dudar (101) - Minsk, BELARUS - NOV 14, 2011
Dark ruby lager, beige persistent head. Aroma of light caramel and roast. Taste sweet malt, caramel, nutty roastiness. Low to Med body, light pleasant bitterness. Pleasant dark lager
