Hemp Valley Beer Extra Strong

Tap to rate

A special strong brew that stands out with a pronounced taste and aroma of hemp. As in the classic version of the line, the plant blends pleasantly with the agreeable bitterness of the beers brewed in Nová Paka. It is filled into small glass bottles, and the brewery labels it a beer with hemp flavour.

◐ Taste

Entry is full and assertive, with herbaceous hemp flavour immediately evident on the palate. The mid-palate develops a clean, resinous bitterness (30 IBU) that frames without overpowering the distinctive plant character. Moderate residual sweetness from the Malz balances the herbal intensity, while the 8% ABV provides a gentle warming sensation.

◑ Finish

The finish is dry and lingering, with herbal and earthy hemp notes persisting on the palate and throat. A gentle astringency from both hops and plant matter leaves a refreshing, complex aftertaste.
