Crows are mysterious creatures surrounded by countless myths and legends. The intelligent birds have incredible minds and are capable of complex actions. They are capable of learning and find tools in their everyday life to crack open nuts or free fruit from their shells. They can make logical connections and communicate using gestures and sounds. Even in ancient times people knew about the wisdom of corvids and made them kings and gods in fairy tales and legends. Due to their midnight-black plumage, however, the animals are also considered to bring bad omens and as a symbol of misfortune.
The Flügge brewery has always been fascinated by feathered companions of all kinds and features the cheeky little fellows on the labels of its creations. Now they have teamed up with Orca Brau from Nuremberg to create a beery memorial to the crow. Behind the watchful eyes of a raven with glasses and a top hat lies a bohemian darkness. This beer specialty is typically made with Czech lager yeast and Saaz hops from the Czech Republic.
The classic brings a full-bodied body to the glass and scores with strong roasted aromas, palatable character, deep black soul, wonderfully creamy foam and a spicy hint of hops. The brewers have proven their wisdom with the combination of coffee, chocolate and roasted malt and did credit to the crows.
