Kosmokrator (291) - ITALY - MAR 18, 2013
Nera e delicatamente schiumosa; offre al naso sentori tostati, caffè, cacao e cereali, al palato compaiono più deboli note caramellate e luppolate ma mantiene un carattere "tosto e tostato" più intenso di altre dunkel o schwarzebier. Cremosa e beverina, di corpo medio ed effervescenza debole è una birra molto interessante, abbinamento obbligatorio ed impeccabile durante il pasto nello storico locale di Praga!

Draught at U Fleku. Big, creamy head, dark brown colour. Aroma coffee, hops, a bit of caramel.. Taste is unforgettable, roasted, caramel and coffee. One of the best dunkel beers.

#54 Was soll man von der Mutter aller Schwarzbiere schon großartig schreiben? Jeder, der schon mal in der wunderschönen Stadt Prag war, ist wohl auch im U Fleku gelandet. Ein wahrhaft bierseeliger Ort der Bier, Tradition und Lebensart ausstrahlt. Das Bier ist sehr dunkel und hat reichlich Schaum. Das Aroma ist primär malzig mit etwas Bitterschokolade. Der Antrunk ist toll süffig, weil alles andere als schwer und süß geraten, Meisterklasse! Ein geradezu erfrischendes Schwarzes mit tollem Nachgeschmack nach Toffee und verhaltenem Röstmalz. Mit dem nächsten Bämbel geht das Geschmackserlebnis vom neuen los. Dazu noch das leckere Essen verbunden mit dem Tuba- u. Akkordeonduo mit "Viva Colognia" und der Bierhimmel ist so nah! Tolles Brauhaus, tolles Bier! Prag ist immer eine Reise wert! Test vom 20.9.2009, Gebinde: Fass Noten: 14,12,13,13,-,13 - 12,94 Jevers Zeuge meint:

ElDesmadre (944) - Mikołów, POLAND - NOV 28, 2012
Draught at U Fleku, Prague. Almost black with a big, creamy head. Medium strong aroma of coffee, yeast and grain. Light sweetish with a medium bitterness. Full body. Strong flavour of grain and coffee, with notes of chocolate and light roast. A deliciously sessionable dunkel that fits in perfectly with the brewpub it is made in.

Tap at the brepub. Big stable brown head. Darkbrown, almost black colour. Aroma coffee, roasted, quite tempting. Light caramel. Taste is very lightly watery, harmonic caramel-roasted, very light coffee. Greatly drinkable.

TheCametron (1296) - CZECH REPUBLIC - NOV 15, 2012
Keg at U Fleku. I drank several of these alongside a hefty Pork Knuckle. Pours Dark Brown/Black with a creamy off-white head. Aroma is of dark malts. Flavour has Coffee, Chocolate, caramel. The texture is velvety and comes across almost like Best or Guiness. Better though. Very nice.

dinkle50 (686) - Chicago, Illinois, USA - SEP 8, 2012
Dark pour with a huge head. I drank 3 of these with dinner at the famous U Fleků brewery in Prague. Aroma of grain, a little roast and a very light mouth. Nothing crazy special, but also a very tasty easy drinker.

laiti (3935) - Tampere, FINLAND - SEP 8, 2012
Draught @ the brewpub. Rated on 14.07.2010
Aroma is rather malty with roasted notes and coffee. Flavour is slightly sweet with lots of roasted malt, some coffee, salmiac and herbs. I like the salmiac notes here.

On draught at the world’s oldest brewpub, of course. What this beer is not is a classical example of a style of beer that has been forgotten, or one of the finest tasting beers in the world. What it is can be summarised as being perfect for its place. Brewed by the same person for 40 years in the same place, gently developed in response to getting better kit and better ingredients. Always intending to be its own beer. Dark, light and comforting with a puff of coal dust for edge. (Not literally!)
