3.0 BOTTLE 33 CL. Clear dark brown, beige head. Both the aroma and the flavour have dark toasted bread, sweet bread, dusty cereals and spicy bitter finish. The mouthfeel is smooth enough - just a bit of the pungency that lagers have when they get too strong. Nothing fancy, just a decent tmavy.

A short, fruity, herbal hop bitterness in the finish. A decent dunkel, sweet caramel and lots of fruit. Late hoppiness but a little short.

3.4 Fľaša 0,5 l z Nitrianskej pivotéky. Tmavá "kofolová" farba, pivo je číre, nižšia jemná pena. Aróma káva, karamel, prezreté ovocie. Chuť príjemná plná, sušené slivky, karamel, dozvuk praženej kávy. Chutilo.

3.2 500 ml bottle into a pint glass. Pours black, with a big khaki head that lasts. Decent lacing. Not much on the nose. Taste is dark malt, but not a strong flavor. creamy mouth feel, with a long, somewhat sweet finish. Not bad, but not great, either. A pleasant enough session beer.

3.7 Bottle. Pretty good dark lager. Not sweet, pleasant taste and palate. Small head. Like it.

3.7 the aroma is caramel and rather light... the taste is caramel with shades of nuts, dark fruits, coffee and toffee... noticeable hoppy bitterness... sweet and dry aftertaste...

3.2 Buena cerveza checa tomada en el museo de la cerveza, oscura y un poco ligera, entra sola, muy suavecita,se puede repetir, pero mejor buscar otras.

3.2 Karamellás illatok bontogatják szárnyaikat egy kissé füvesen fanyar, pörkölt kávés alaphang kíséretében. Ízében egyszerre édeskés és pirított karakterű, tejkaramellás és étcsokoládés, kakaós ízjegyek köntösébe öltöztetett főzet.

4.5 Pours to a buff head that lasts and laces. Transparent ruby black color. Slight roast and decocted malt aroma with a honey-like floral hop note. Flavor is reminiscent of molasses, coffee and toffee, with a balancing clean bitterness and hop spice. Mouthfeel is light medium. Overall an outstandingly satisfying and complex dark lager.

2.9 Bottle shared with Cuso, the only bottle in the pub. Pours dark amber color, lightly beige head. Aroma is honey, caramel, roasted malt. Taste is sweet, caramel, roasted malt, honey. Sweet finish.
