Czech dark beers are usually sweet as during the communist time they had reputation to be a ladies drink. But times changed so why not to have it dry finish dry hopped with not only czech nop, but also with a NZ citrusy touch, but with czech background.

Cask @ Commercial Inn, Sowerby Bridge. Dark reddish brown with a small and slightly off-white creamy head. Has a fusion of darker and roasted malts in a fairly easy-sipping texture. There’s a slight smoothness to this and the ale has a gentle sweetness.
