Benedict Klášterní IPA 15°

◎ Aussehen

Golden amber hue with excellent clarity and a fine, persistent head that clings to the glass with visible lacing. The carbonation is crisp and well-integrated, creating a lively visual presence in the glass. The body appears full and inviting, characteristic of a well-crafted 15° brew.

◌ Aroma

The nose opens with bright citrus notes from the American hop blend, offering grapefruit and orange zest character. Beneath the hop-forward character lies a solid malt foundation with subtle bread and caramel undertones from the four-malt bill. Clean fermentation allows the individual hop and malt elements to speak clearly without yeast-derived complexity.

◐ Geschmack

The palate enters with full body and a firm bitterness that carries a slightly rough, assertive edge typical of the American hop contribution. Mid-palate reveals layered citrus character alongside malty sweetness, creating balance between the four malts and the five hop varieties. The bitterness builds steadily without overwhelming the underlying complexity, finishing with a dry, hoppy aftertaste.

◑ Abgang

The finish is dry and lingering, with citrus and herbal hop notes persisting on the palate. A gentle warmth from the 6.5% ABV remains without harshness, leaving the mouth refreshed and ready for the next sip.
