OBOZ.UA spoke about the differences between dark and light beer. Find out how each variety differs in taste, alcohol content and nutritional benefits.
Taste
Dark beer has a richer, stronger taste compared to light beer. Brewed with roasted malt or other ingredients, it has notes of chocolate, coffee, caramel, and nuts, while other beers typically have a subtler, crisper, and refreshing flavor with hints of grain, citrus, or hops.
Alcohol content
Also, dark beer has a higher alcohol content by volume, which makes it stronger. This is due to the use of roasted malt and more barley. Blonde, on the other hand, has a lower alcohol level, making it a suitable choice for those looking for a lighter option.
Color and appearance
Dark beer, as the name suggests, is darker in color with shades of deep amber, brown or black, often with a thick head of foam. Light has a pale yellow to golden color, with a clear and bubbly foam.
Calorie and carbohydrate content
Often dark contains more calories and carbohydrates than light, which is due to the increased content of residual sugar that is formed in it from the malt used in the brewing process. The difference in calorie and carbohydrate content is a critical factor for people watching their diet.
