MadCat Desítka

Tap to rate

A light, bottom-fermented výčepní with a pleasant fruity undertone from the Czech hop Kazbek. It refreshes with a pronounced bitterness and a full body, and its alcohol content is lower. The brewery describes it as a pale, unfiltered and unpasteurised ten-degree ležák made from water, barley malt and hops, and sells it as a keg beer through its online shop.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for MadCat Desítka

◎ Appearance

Pale golden hue with a bright, lively clarity characteristic of an unfiltered Kellerbier. The head forms quickly and clings to the glass with fine lacing, supported by the beer's natural carbonation. Body presents as full and substantial despite the modest 4% ABV.

◌ Aroma

Kazbek hop character leads the nose with distinct fruity, slightly floral notes that soften into a clean malt foundation. The unfiltered nature contributes subtle yeast-derived esters, adding depth without cloudiness on the palate. Overall impression is fresh and inviting, with noble hop restraint.

◐ Taste

Entry is crisp and refreshing, with a pronounced hop bitterness (25 IBU) that carries through the mid-palate without harshness. Subtle breadiness and malt sweetness provide ballast and body; the Kazbek's fruity undertone emerges as bitterness settles. Finish remains clean and dry, with a lingering hoppy bite.

◑ Finish

Medium finish with a persistent, dry hoppy aftertaste that refreshes rather than fatigues. Malt backbone fades cleanly, leaving the Kazbek's gentle fruitiness as the final impression.
