2 Row Caramel 120L is dark. Not Tarantino dark, but still pretty dark. The more you add (up to 15%) the more burnt sugar, caramel, and raisiny and prune flavors you're going to get from it while adding a deep red color and improving body and head retention.

It is gently cooked during the malting process to produce glassy, crystallized sugars which will add sweetness to your final product.
