Toronto’s Godspeed Brewery gets my vote as the makers of Ontario’s finest lagers. Tmavý Ležák 12º Czech Premium Dark Lager is other high quality lager from Godspeed. The 4.7% dark lager comes in 355mL cans and pours near black with a sudsy tan head.
To my sniffer, T.L.12 has malty and sweet aroma. It features a complex flavour with roasted malt, copper, coffee, and grain elements, supported by the faintest lilt of blueberry—that last one was something I noticed initially and it is deep in the weeds. The finish has floral bitterness and is quite dry.
I don’t buy a ton of dark lagers, but T.L.12 made me feel like I should. It was a highly enjoyable and well built beer.
Rating: 9.0 out of 10.
