Mazák 12 Session IPA

◎ Appearance

Light golden hue with a slight haze characteristic of unfiltered brewing. The head forms with moderate density and retains a fine, delicate lacing along the glass. Bright carbonation threads rise steadily through the body, maintaining clarity within the soft turbidity.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with pronounced tropical fruit notes—mango, passionfruit, and stone fruit—delivered by the Californian hop blend of Columbus, Mosaic, Simcoe, and Cashmere. Beneath the hop-forward character sits a clean, understated Pilsner malt foundation with gentle grain sweetness. No fermentation esters or phenolic notes intrude; the profile remains crisp and straightforward.

◐ Taste

The palate enters light and dry, with hop bitterness establishing itself immediately at 45 IBU—a marked but not aggressive presence. Mid-palate develops the tropical and citrus character promised on the nose, while the Carapils malt provides subtle body without sweetness. The finish dries progressively, bitterness lingering cleanly without astringency or harsh edges.

◑ Finish

Medium-short finish with the hop bitterness fading gradually into a crisp, refreshing dryness. No residual sweetness or cloying sensation remains; the aftertaste is clean and inviting of the next sip.
