A dark beer of premium-class and most popular in its region: these dark brown to black beers have a mild-roasted malty character without the associated bitterness. As speciality beers, they have a full body with a gently enhanced malty flavour and an aroma with low to moderate levels of sweetness. Hop bitterness is low to medium in character.

50cl can in Riga. Dry neutral beginning. Malt and drain, very dry neutral. The bitterness is low, the beer has only hints of roast and a grainy body. Very neutral with nearly no depth, the whole beer seems to be unround. Tastes more like a cheap brew than a DAB-product. Very sad. Grainy dry aftertaste with hints of dry malt.

Can 0,5.
Exterior: not black but dark by name. A wonderful looking, colored beer and its head is also beautiful, sticky. It smells much less than many browns. Earthy, caramel character. I wondered if it was "wet," but it wasn't. If I sip slowly, I always feel what I need: roasted malt, even hops. Malt brown beers are also available. It was a pleasant surprise for me. There were, there are better browns, but not bad. But the more expensive it could be, the more it could provide.

Külső: nem fekete, hanem sötét az elnevezés szerint. Egy csodás megjelenésű, színű sör és a habja is gyönyörű,tapadós. Illata jóval kevesebb, mint sok barnának. Földes, karamelles jelleg. Ízre gondolkodtam, hogy "vizes"-e, de nem. Ha lassan kortyolgatom, mindig kiérezni,azt, ami kell: pörkölt maláta, még komló is. A malátás barna sörök kellékei is megvannak. Nekem kellemes meglepetés volt. Volt, vannak jobb barnák, de nem rossz.. Viszont amilyen drága, annál többet is nyújthatna.

Canned from Carrefour. Nose is toasted malts, toasted bread, grainy. Flavour is bready, bit of toastiness. Slightly bitter and fairly sweet. Well drinkable.

Deep brown, dense ivory head. Dark malts on nose. Light body. Lively carbonation. Dryish taste with obvious roasted malts dominance. Light bitterness. Schwarzbier it is I guess. OK

0.5l can. Reddish brown body, thin off-white head. Aroma of caramel, cocoa, plums and grains. Taste of caramel, toast, chocolate, plums and floral hops. Not bad, only a bit weak for me.
