3.1 Tight fluffy off white head stayed on a dark mahogany coloured still body. Malt & dark chocolate aroma. Medium bodied, creamy in the mouth with a well carbonated clean finish. Malt, Coca-Cola, berry, cherry & sugar tastes.

2.9 Shared can at hotel room, Pours almost clear dark brown with a small off-white head. Moderate sweet aroma and taste, well bodied, nice malt oriented beer.

2.7 Color is like a coca cola, quite carbonated, almost no foam and a bit hazy body. Weak aroma of ground coffee and in the background some roasted malt. Refreshing and easy drinking, watery, has a caramel taste, with some notes of coffee and dark chocolate. The finish is caramel, coffee and roasted malt, with a trace of alcohol.

3.2 33cl bottle (0,73€) from Auchan Cotroceni supermarket in AFI Cotroceni in Bucharest in Romania. F: medium, tan to tanned, good retention. C: brown, coppery almost clear. A: rich malty, dark caramel, bready, bit fruity, burned sugar. T: dark malts, burned sugar, caramel, dark bread crust, medium body and low to medium carbonation, enjoyed but not as “dark strong lager”.

3.0 .33 bottle. Pours dark brown with a decent beige head. Aroma of malt, grain, nuts, and a touch of chocolate. Taste is similar. Decent.

3.0 Aroma 5. Appearance 3. Taste 6. Palate 4. Overall 12. Roasted malt and caramel aroma. Walnut, toffee, and roasted malt taste. Sweet and smoked aftertaste.

5.0 Silva is brilliant. The lovely bitter aftertaste in the medium body, the great color of the liquid makes it the perfect beverage for a gathering with your friends. The design is now way better than the old one, taste's also improved.

3.4 Bere ok. O alternativa la berea negra. Păcat ca au înlocuit Silva Neagră.

3.5 Very good dark lager. Honestly, much better than a dark Straropramen or Ursus. Well done Silva.

3.4 For me personally is the best beer in Romania

4.1 Alexandru cel Bun Iasi

3.1 It has a dark ruby color , medium sweetness and a bitter aftertaste . Its a decent dark beer overall.

2.3 0.5 can. Pours clear dark amber/brown color with high, quickly diminishing beige head. Aroma of roasted malts, caramel. Flavor is high sweet, light to medium bitter, roasted caramel, a lot of malts. Medium body. Average carbonation.

3.0 W aromacie trochę nut palonych i ziołowa goryczka. W smaku wyraźna nuta palona, gorzki karmel. Alkohol grzeje w przełyku. Jest takie jednowymiarowe, nic się w tym piwie nie dzieje. Wypuszczanie na rynek z adnotacją "Authentic romanian craft-guality beer" to próba wpisania się w piwną rewolucję i tendencje na rynku. Niebyt udana. Piwo nieszczególne.

2.8 Halve liter fles.@ terras Sinaia. Bruinrode kleur, kraag is snel weg. Ruikt en smaakt moutig, caramel. Wat waterig.

2.5 0,33 bottle. Dark amber color, medium carbonation, medium sour. Not even strong beer, very drinkable

2.6 Draft in Bucuresti. Pours dark brown. Aroma is birnell, dirty nuts, old caramel, greasy liquorice. Body is medium, strongly sweet with not quite enough carbonation to balance it out. Lingering sweet palate. Definitely not the right beer to drink in sweaty Bucharest in July, and also not particularly good.

2.9 Botella 500ml Marron oscuro,rojizo con espuma de color beige,fina,alta,media resistente.Aroma malta tostada,caramelo,galletas.Sabor malta tostada,caramelo,galletas,bizcocho, dulce pero no abusivo,textura oleosa

3.4 0,33l bottle. Clear dark ruby colour with quickly disappearing white head. Aroma: Caramel, soft cognac notes. Taste: Quite malty sweet/sourish start with a light bitter mouthfeel. Medium body with fizzy carbonation. Long lasting sourish/bitter finish.

3.0 Dark amber color with beige head, aroma of coffee, chocolate and alcohol, medium sweetness, medium body.

3.3 Fles 33cl thuis. Zoetig, droppig. Wel redelijk weg te drinken. (9-2012).--.

2.7 Valt tegen. Weinig geur, vooral zoete smaak. Niet zo'n lekkere karamel als de Negra's vaak hebben..

0.8 330mL bottle, pours a dark copper brown with a small beige head. Aroma brings out toasted nuts, light caramel and boiled vegetables. Flavour is rather stale tasting, with boiled vegetables, caramel and skunk cabbage. This is horrendous - offensive and skunked. Awful stuff.

3.2 Brown. Aroma is ovomaltine and some brown sugar. Taste is sweet but grainy bready bitterness with a ratjer long licorice finish. Quite drinkable. Not cloggy. Nice actually.

2.7 Bottle and can. Pours clear dark amber with frothy head and very good lacing. Aroma is doughy malt, slight dried, dark fruit. Flavour is sweet caramel, with hints of toasted malt. Medium body, OK mouthfeel and medium carbonation. Good.

2.9 Adding comment; dark, malty, ok. Bottle....................testing........ moderate.. Bucharest.

2.8 Acustic'75 pub, Timsoara. 0,5l bottle. Dark to amber color cognac aroma, light taste of cafe, bit sweet, burned aftertaste.

1.0 20171124 @the gambrinus (Bucarest) a veces pasa que te encuentras con una cerveza que no puedes terminar y que te revuelve el estómago... esta fue una de esas raras ocasiones. Sabor dulzón y raro, como si tuviese caramelo líquido (con ese amargos de resquemado)....
