Czechvar in North America.
The premium dark lager has complemented Budweiser Budvar Brewery’s traditional product range. It is brewed in the same way as the premium pale lager, using first-class Saaz hops, Moravian malt, water drawn from 300-metre deep artesian wells and three types of special colour malted barley: Munich, caramel and roasted.
The beer is characterised by a distinctly dark colour, a dry and mildly bitter caramel flavour without any dominant sweetness and a delicious aroma of roasted malt.
Prémiový tmavý ležák doplňuje tradiční nabídku piva z pivovaru Budějovický Budvar, n. p. od roku 2004. Je vyroben stejným postupem jako originální světlý ležák, za použití nejvybranějšího žateckého chmele, moravského sladu, vody čerpané ze 300 m hlubokých artéských studní a tří druhů speciálních barevných ječných sladů: mnichovského, karamelového a praženého.
Charakterizuje jej výrazně tmavá barva, suchá, jemně hořká karamelová chuť bez dominance sladkosti. Vůně je delikátní po praženém sladu.

Tasting it again, yesterday, at home, at midday, preparing the food for the children. A promotion in the denner, happy to find a beer like thay, in Switzerland but it won't be for a long time, smooth and a bit roasty, touch of sweetness, bitter, 05.10.24

10.07.2023 Aromat ciemnego słodu, bardzo interesujące, słodkie, tostowe orzechowe. Ciemnobrązowe, piana jasno brązowa, klarowne. Smak lekko słodkie, trochę, melanoidyn, lekka goryczka. Nagazowanie średnie, lekkie, gładkie. Ogólnie piwo nawet całkiem w porządku bez sensacji, ale za te pieniądze

Can from the LCBO.
Dark brown pour, with a medium light brown head. Aroma is sweet dark malts, light fruitness, and some roasty cereals, and soft coffee. There is a soft schwarzbier flavour in there too. A touch of smoke, nice mouth feel, soft carb. Low bitterenss, light smoky finish, with a soft fruity maltiness.
