The beer was brewed together with hungarian brewers and is finished with Tokaj wine extract. That's why it is about 8%Abv for 16 plato beer. This is basicaly the same beer - well, brewed the same way, as the one listed on KAltenecker web site - base beer is there 13 plato dark beer finished with the Tokaj wine. it is by far their best beer. Very drinkable and also very dangerous for it's alcohol volume:) There will be Kaltenecker weizen avaible for taste at Tabor at the end of January during the famous beer festival at Palcat hotel. One more thing: as there is a "Visegrad beer triangle" cooperation, Jan Suran of Pivo Praha company brewed last weekend his IPA in KAltenecker and also in a near by hungarian city of Miskolc. Those are the guys who provided the Tokaj wine for 16 plato semidark beer:) There will be the 16 plato semidark beer served at Pivovarsky klub soon.

The Kaltenecker dark is definitely better than their ginger-honey lager, but not at all at the same level as the Troobacz. It seems they've had Brokát at Pivovarsky klub a couple of times: at Ratebeer, user slimchill rated it on October 8 based on a tasting at Pivovarsky klub. I tried mine on December 30, so that's clearly not the same keg. For that matter, I seemed to think it tasted better than he did. Maybe they've improved. The Troobacz is outstanding.

I had that “Trubač” and I really loved it. As I did that Opat 16° they had on the same day. Some time ago, at Pivovarsky Klub, they had another dark beer from Klatecnecker. It was not bad, but it tasted a bit like a regular industrial tmavé. Maybe it was not the best batch, but if we are talking about the same beer, I was a bit dissapointed. Must try it again. Oh!
