Bottled 500ml. -Courtesy of heavy shared with him & Marko (thanks!) Pale golden coloured, small white head, buttery nose. Buttery and diacetyl with light herbal notes. Bitterish finish, pretty offensive. Not good at all.

Bottle, stable creamy beige head, deep brown colour with lots of red hues, jammy malty aroma, feels almost sweet, with dried fruits, dark german style bread and some nuts, flavour of sourdough bread, instant coffee, and some candy and dried figs in the back, strong sourness, a little too strong, overshadowing a light bitterness. Maybe a bit over the hill but still quite interesting.

20/11 Draught on a random bar in Cesky Krumlov. It poured dark reddish brown body with medium sized head. Fine caramel and brown sugar aroma. Flavor is also nice, offering some dark malts like caramel, toffee, a bit of licorice. Fuller in body, quite cloying as of the sweetness, long, even slightly warming sugary and caramel finish. Would have bet it contains more alcohol, actually the rich malt is the reason. Not bad at all, at contrary very good Czech dark beer, where this one is more Dunkel, but listed as Schwarz, oppositely of few others I’ve tried around that are listed as Dunkels but they’re definitely not. Oh well...

Bottle, dense stable head, very hazy and deep gold colour, malty and a bit stale malty aroma, flavour of honey, stale bread, canned mushrooms and a foul almondy bitterness. This brew has probably seen better days.

Bottle. Clear deep golden color with a stable medium white head and nice lacing. Aroma is grainy with some cereals, some butter and faint notes of hops. Sweetish flavor with some graininess, light buttery notes and a mildly bitter finish with a bit of hops. Light-bodied. Kinda drinkable but not so good - I suspect this one isn’t very fresh.

Bottled. An amber beer with a lazing beige head. The aroma has notes of malt, caramel and a bit of butter. The flavor is sweet with notes of caramel, malt, and butter, leading to a bitter finish. Thanks yespr for sharing.
