Commercial Description:
Beck's Dark is rich and smooth with a lingering, slightly sweet aftertaste. The deep ebony color is the result of specially roasting the barley malt. Unlike dark ales, Beck's Dark is a bottom-fermented lager which creates a robust flavor and full body while retaining the refreshing properties of a lager beer.

Bottle. Pours a dark brown color with a white head. Sweet and roasted aroma of molasses. Flavor is about the same, mildly sweet and a little roasted. Not Bad.

A little tastier then that Original, and not quite as skunky. Pours a thick brown colour with a full tan head. Roasted malts and caramel in the aroma. Taste is relatively light with a decent nutty character.

Pours thick brown, just about opaque. Large thick fomay light tan head that lasts a long time. Very delicious aroma of toasted brown sugar, well balanced full malty flavor that is not too sweet. Medium body, Clean, and crisp. Unfortunately the corn taste comes through on the finish and ruins the whole thing.

Bottle. Pours a dark red-brown color with a thin tan head. Taste is of roasted malt, chocolate and is a little sweet. The aroma is pretty light, but is similar to the taste. Finish is kind of dry and bitter. Slightly watery. Pretty good, but for the price I’d rather get something else.

This one felt a bit dull. It doesn’t taste like much, outside of yeast, water, and just a little malt. Light carbonation, and a bit watery.
