(Bottle 50 cl) Typical slightly watery Czech pilsener, but less hoppines than what is standard. Less malty too. Decent if a bit bland.

(Bottle 50 cl) Reddish dark (colouring added), off-white head. Slightly sweetish (artificial sweetener added), slightly bitter. Malty and flavourfull but naturally not with much body. These guys really should stay away from the additives.

Draught in Prague, called Krusovice Vycepni Tmavé on the menu, but must be the same beer. Black (= very dark brown) colour, large head. Lovely malty aroma with strong elements of leather and cigarbox. Pleasant flavour of roasted malts, some caramel but not too sweet, very well balanced with the hops. For the style freaks: This is a Schwarzbier IMO, not a dunkel - but who cares, as long as the beer tastes good? I’d think the ABV was stronger than it actually is - another evidence that flavour and strength are not necessarily the same thing. Great with food or on its own. A truly enjoyable beer.
Rerate bottle: I just realised I had written separate notes of the BOTTLED beer named Krusovice Cerne - I could SWEAR it was a different beer from the draught Vycepni Tmave. Notes bottle: Deep reddish brown colour. Large tan head, moderate carbonation. Moderate malty aroma. Typical dunkel flavour with low bitterness. Relatively light bodied, refreshing. Overall 13/20.

500 ml can, bought in Prague. Golden colour, large thick head. Hoppy and fruity aroma, some flowers there too. Flavour is pleasantly balanced between the malts and hops - both elements are present and plentiful to a much greater degree than many other so called "pilseners". Nice.

Bottled (BB 06/2005)
Clear golden yellow color, steady white head, lace. Aroma is rubbery, slightly skunky hoppy., not very strong. Medium-bodied malty, clean and plain with hints of sweetness. Some hoppy bitterness in the finish. Quite uninteresting pilsener.
