Czech dark lager
ADVERTISEMENT
We have always loved stout beer. There is something about the smooth bitterness and strong toasted flavours that endear us into having one too many glasses. Lagers, on the other hand, are reserved for days when we know the night will be loud thanks to a game on the big screen or a post-work karaoke night. So when we heard that there's a dark lager in town (they claim it's India's first), we head out immediately to try what's called the Czech dark lager.
The first look is impressive — it has a good head and, as promised, is extremely dark, which is a tribute to the days when lager used to be black due to the smoky roasting process of malts. The first sip envelops our tongue with beautiful toasted notes, and being a lager, it's still light and fizzy. On the whole, it's not thick and heavy like a stout. Yet, it's also refreshing enough to be had on a hot summer evening. A win-win for the lager guzzler.
