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.

500 ml can abv is 4,4% maybe a swedish version? Thick creamy beige head. Colour is dark. very light aroma, I only detect some dark malts and maybe some notes of dark bread. Again bread in the flavour which is very thin for this kind of beer. This beer wasn’t for me.

riversideAK (4381) - Shoreline, Washington, USA - OCT 22, 2008
Dark brown pour with a thin head. The aroma is pretty light with some dark malts, moderate sweetness, and a touch of metal. Flavor is much the same; rather light, unobtrusive. Meh.

Rune (4671) - Tromsř, NORWAY - OCT 22, 2008
500ml can shared at a gathering in Tromsř - very fine as a partner to herring food. Pours a nice mahogany body under a fluffy, off-white head. Roasted caramel malts to the nose. Ditto taste with a dry ending. Easy to drink (21.10.2008).

I hated this one. No character, no malt, nothing. The beer that was not there.

bottle. fizzy carbonation on the pour (probably a bad sign). dark brown with a fizzy tan head. aroma is sweet malts and a touch of roasty chocolate. taste is light caramel malt followed up with a bit of smokiness. a little thin and a bit of an acidic aftertaste. don’t have a lot of schwarzbier experience to compare it to at this point.
