Hemp Valley Beer

Tap to rate

A hemp-flavoured pale beer that stands out with a pronounced taste and aroma of the plant. Both blend pleasantly with the classic bitterness so typical of the Nová Paka beers. A high-quality hemp aroma is used for the flavouring, and the brewery labels the result a beer with hemp flavour, filled into small glass bottles.

Tasting Notes

AI-generated sensory profile for Hemp Valley Beer

◎ Appearance

A pale golden hue characteristic of the pale ale family, presented in small glass bottles that showcase the beer's bright clarity. The head forms with moderate density and leaves a delicate lacing along the glass as it recedes. Carbonation appears lively and well-integrated throughout.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with a pronounced hemp character—herbaceous and plant-forward—that dominates without overshadowing the underlying malt base. Noble hop aromatics weave through, contributing subtle floral and herbal notes that enhance rather than compete with the hemp profile. A light, clean yeast character provides balance and prevents the adjunct from becoming one-dimensional.

◐ Taste

The palate enters with a crisp, refreshing character that quickly develops into a full herbal presence from the hemp ingredient. A restrained bitterness—around 30 IBU—arrives mid-palate with a dry, earthy finish that mirrors the hemp's natural tannins. The low alcohol (4.5%) keeps the body light and sessionable while allowing the distinctive flavors to remain in focus.
