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.

Bottle from local Home Bargains store – drank at home. Pours a dark burgundy with a medium sized frothy cream head. There’s malts, nuts, squishy brown bread and yeast in the aroma. In the mouth it is sweet with a creamy texture and a little underlying tartness. Malts, chocolate and coffee dominate the flavour, plus hints of dark fruits and ginger. Some bitterness in the dry finish. This is rather nice – very quaffable !

Brune foncée sur un col crémeux tenace blanc-cassé.
Arôme sur un bouquet classique de Dunkel - ici, un malté généreux sur un nez caramel, grillé délicat en retrait avec une petite note plus levure et fins houblonnés qui reviennent en rétro-nasal.
Palais sur un caractère caramel, léger grillé avec une petite note de chocolat, un peu suret et un côté fruité noir délicat. Le côté grillé 'roasted'
