Zážeh 10

Tap to rate

Zážeh is the light ten-degree lager from the castle brewery in Břeclav, with a soft aroma of blossoms and citrus. It is unfiltered and brewed with Pilsner-type malt and three hops that are unusual for a Czech draught beer: Perle, Hallertau Mittelfrüh and Mandarina Bavaria. A citrus tinge keeps the taste fresh. Like every beer there it ferments in open vessels, and it is one of the newer lagers on the range.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with soft floral notes—honeyed blossom character—layered with bright citrus hints, particularly mandarin and lime from the Mandarina Bavaria and Hallertau Mittelfrüh hops. A gentle, clean Pilsner malt sweetness grounds the profile, with no solvent or yeasty volatility, creating an inviting and approachable bouquet.

◐ Taste

Entry is crisp and refreshing, with a light citrus bite that drives across the palate. The mid-palate balances soft malt sweetness with subtle bready notes, while the herbal, measured bitterness from Perle and Hallertauer adds structure without dominating. The finish remains dry and clean, leaving the citrus tinge as the dominant lingering impression.
