Strahov Session Hazy IPA

◎ Appearance

Pale golden-yellow with a soft haze throughout, giving the beer a cloudy, approachable character. The white head forms readily and clings to the glass with fine, persistent lacing. Carbonation is moderate and well-integrated, supporting the overall delicate presentation.

◌ Aroma

The nose leads with vibrant citrus and resinous hop character, lifted by the use of Cryo hops which deliver intensity without harshness. Subtle piney and herbal notes emerge alongside a light, barely perceptible background of soft Malz sweetness. The aromatic profile remains clean and forward-facing, inviting immediate engagement.

◐ Taste

Entry is clean and refreshing, with a bright hop bitterness that sits comfortably at 25 IBU—enough to define the beer without dominating. Mid-palate develops gentle citrus and herbal resin, supported by a light Malz frame that allows the hops to remain the focal point. The body is lean and approachable, making this an easy-drinking session beer despite its hop-driven character.

◑ Finish

The finish is dry and gently lingering, with a whisper of resin and citrus fading smoothly. Overall impression is refreshing and sessionable, leaving no cloying sweetness behind.
