Dark brown color. Pretty good doppelbock, malty enough, quite sweet; caramel; traces of roasted nuts. Balanced sweetness/bitterness and doesn’t show too much the alcohol content. Yet, not enough aromatic nor complex.

Bottle brought home from Prague, purchased at "Pivni Gallerie". Label sais "Primator Double 24% Tmavy Porter". Dark ruby red color, big lasting beige head. Strong alcoholic scent, sweet with some liquorice. Very big body. Sweet and a bit red wine in the taste. The sugary sweet is dominant in the taste. Low bitterness.

(Bottle 50 cl) Dark brown with an orangey glow and a creamy, beige head leaving some laces. Sweetish aroma of roasted malt. Very full body - huge body - with tons of roasted malt and a lightly burned edge. Sweet - cloyingly sweet. Like a Danish "Hvidtøl" on mescaline. Basically no bitterness. Quite inharmonious. 290406

(Bottle 50 cl) Pours a clear, fully golden with a creamy, white head. Aroma of malt and alcohol. Very full-bodied with a solid, malty base. Bitter finish with distinct alcohol - way too distinct. 290406

500ml bottle brought back from Prague. Very deep ruby colour with thin lasting beige head. Very vinous in the mouth with plenty of heat and lots of fruit. Sweet blackberry, damson and plum. Choc and fruit on the aroma. Port like in mouth with lots of warming dark fruits with a touch of choc. Quite a stunning beer actually. Amazingly alcoholic but full of flavour. I agree with maeib, this is an excellent nightcap.

Bottled (on back: Primátor Pivo Tmavý lezák, on front: Primátor Velikonocní lezák). Dark rubyish amber colour, big beige head. Roasted malts, caramel and some diacetyl in aroma. Flavour starts caramelly and sugary sweet and then goes towards a maltyness and finally some hoppy bitterness. The sweetness gets to a point almost annoying after the beer gets warmer, so enjoy cold to avoid extra sweetness. While cold it’s quite wellbalanced in my opinion. Due to label it looks like an Easter Beer. Also flavour is Eastery. Rich carbonation.

Labelled as Primátor Pivo tmavý lezák, Velikonocni lezak, bottled (BB 02/2007)
This looks like an Easter special, different label than in RB - with Easter eggs. Dark ruby color, mostly vanishing tan head. Roasted, caramelly malty and diacetylic (more or less "good way") aroma. Starts caramelly and sweet but then more dry with roasted malty notes. In the finish bitterness, in the aftertaste even some hops. Unbalanced, sweetish, but still drinkable.

Bottle at Sunday Times Wine Festival, London. On the bumpf this was down as a "semi-dark beer". Not sure what that means. Looked and tasted like a Vienna to me. However, I liked it. Dark caramel/red colour with beige head. Toffee/caramel aroma. Fine in mouth, more caramel, finish is a bit sweet. Not too much hop. Good caramel/malt beer.
