Liška

Tap to rate

Golden and pale, Liška is brewed from Pilsner malt, original Žatec Poloraný červeňák and the traditional Premiant hop, which give it a delicate aroma. The bitterness is pleasant. The brewery classes it as a pale draught beer, bottom-fermented, and presents it as a companion for relaxed summer sittings.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with the characteristic noble-hop profile of Žatec and Premiant varieties, delivering a delicate floral and herbal bouquet without aggressive intensity. Beneath the hops sits a clean, understated malt sweetness from the Pilsner base, offering a light grain foundation. The overall aromatic impression is refined and balanced, with no yeast-driven esters or adjunct notes—a study in restraint and elegance.

◐ Taste

Entry is smooth and slightly sweet, with the Pilsner malt providing a soft, biscuity foundation that carries through the palate. Mid-palate evolves into a pleasant, measured bitterness from the noble hops, never harsh or astringent. The beer finishes dry and crisp, with a refreshing quality that invites the next sip—ideal for extended sessions and warm weather drinking.

◑ Finish

The finish is short to medium, clean and dry, with lingering hop-derived bitterness that fades gracefully into a mineral-like dryness. No malt sweetness persists; instead, a refreshing quality dominates, leaving the palate prepared for food or another pour.
