Mustang 11

Czech Republic·Czech Premium Pale Lager
Tap to rate

Three hop varieties including wild Kazbek and three malts: the wild hop's intense aroma blends with the scent of the selected malts, and its rougher character dominates the taste, backed by Czech, Bavarian and caramel malt. The deeper golden colour hints at the stronger flavour. At two sold-out concerts at Strahov in Prague, 60,000 people drank Mustang.

◌ Aroma

The wild Kazbek hop dominates with intense, resinous notes layered over herbal undertones and spice. Beneath the assertive hop character, selected malts contribute subtle breadiness and a hint of caramel sweetness. The combination creates a rougher, more textured bouquet than typical Czech lagers.

◐ Taste

Entry is crisp and hoppy, with the Kazbek's resinous bite immediately asserting itself across the palate. Mid-palate reveals layered malt sweetness—Czech, Bavarian and caramel malts blend to create structure and subtle caramel notes, while noble hops provide measured bitterness. The finish remains dry and grounded, with herbal and spicy-hop character lingering without harshness.
