Budvar Dark is a very delicate beer.  Despite its big roasted flavours and dark hue, it remains light bodied.  As it warms, the beer predictably gains sweetness.  It eventually develops some nice creamy flavours but the beer's wonderful roasted flavours never fail to play on the palate.


Declared Best Lager in the World in 2010's World Beer Awards, run by Beers of the World magazine, Budweiser Budvar Dark is a retro-beer. This is because it has been designed to come as close as possible to how all Bohemian and Bavarian lagers tasted before bottom fermented golden lager stole the show in the mid nineteenth century. Now, thanks to Budweiser Budvar, the Darkside is moving centre stage again.


Enjoying the same brewing cycle as Original, Dark gets its delicious roasted flavour from being brewed from three types of malt; Munich, caramel and roasted.

This beer pairs well with most red meats, particulary grilled or smoked meats.
