Hellcat is one of the strongest Double IPA beers made in Czech. The aroma is dominated by the Simcoe hop, which smells like a pine. We use only light Pilsner malt, but the color of the beer is slightly amber – like, which happens because of the large quantities of malt used in brewing this beer. Even though the analytical indicators of Hellcat are quite high, it is easy to drink and the hops will make you “high”.

Draught. Yellwish golden colour with a small white head. Aroma is sweet malts, mild tartness, some floral and mild wooden notes. Flavour is herbal, floral, some fruity and mild toffeeish tones. Smoothly balanced. Simple, but does hide the alcohol well!

Tap at BeerGeek. Golden-yellow body, white head. Malty aroma, tart touches, flowery slightly. Taste... grainy, flowers, some light phenols, sweet, ending in a dull bitterness. Oh wow... either this is out of shape or this is the worst batch they ever put out of this. I expected soooo much more sadly.

# 223; 2/2016. Výrazně alkoholové, spíše sladší, ovocné (meruňky, hroznové víno), kořenité. Povedená DIPA.

On tap at Smokies Yay, a free few hours from little Z. Why not to have some fun with high voltage stuff. This pours hazy yellowish with tall white head. Aroma of citruses and wet socks :) taste of sweet grapefruit, bit hoppy and medium bitter. Now where are you hiding old friend alcohol? Tasty.

On draft at Zly Casy in Prague. Pours a fairly clear copper with a thick white head. Juicy citrus aroma. Flavors of caramel, orange and grapefruit. Wow. Fresh and super juicy. Puts many New England DIPA’s to shame.
