4.0 Sokáig a kedvenc barna söröm volt. Ma is ott van a kedvencek között, mégha nem is az első helyen. Jó malátás, édes íz, némi keserű ízzel a végén. Király itóka.

2.3 Bottle 0,5l from supermarket. Dark brown color, clear, very sparkling with frothy head, whis is away in a second. Looks like a coke. Aroma malty, very slightly roasty and also with caramel. Taste is sweet, caramel, malty, with bitter tones of coffee and maybe salt in the middle? Aftertaste is sweet, little with roasted/coffee tones. Strong carbonation, medium body. Tastes are scattered, it is sweet (due to sugar in ingredients), so I don’t consider it as a good beer. For me weak, maybe aborted batch...

3.0 3rd Oct 2014, on-tap at Ferdinanda, Prague. Pours a deep, dark brown with an tan coloured head. Aroma is semi-sweet roasted malt, caramel and breadlike. The taste is also semi-sweet but there is some liquorice in the flavour also. Not as rich as it looks body wise but OK and not watery. This was the third on-tap beer I had in their place and I was beginning to get bored: luckily ’Sedm Kuli Tmave’ was next!
