Purtse Brewery

Metsik Udu presents an inviting, tropical-forward sensory experience typical of a refined Hazy IPA. The dry-hop combination of Citra, Galaxy, and Sabro creates a layered profile of ripe mango, passionfruit, and bright tangerine, complemented by a distinctive hint of creamy coconut. Its soft, pillowy texture and restrained bitterness emphasize the juicy character intended by the brewer. A clean, bready malt backbone provides a steady foundation without distracting from the intense hop-driven aromatics. The finish is smooth and fruit-focused, leaving a lingering impression of tropical citrus and soft stone fruit on the palate.

Appearance. Straw to light yellow (3–5 SRM). Opaque, uniform haze with a luminous shine. Thick, rocky, meringue-like white head with excellent retention and dense lacing.

Aroma. High intensity. Dominated by tropical fruit including pineapple and mango from Galaxy, alongside bright citrus notes of grapefruit and lime from Citra. Sabro contributes a unique nuance of coconut and subtle mint. Low grainy, bready malt in the background. Estery fermentation profile is supportive and fruity, with no detectable alcohol.

Taste. High fruity hop flavor mirroring the aroma: passionfruit, peach, and citrus zest. Low to medium-low perceived bitterness that is smooth and never harsh. Malt is lightly bready and neutral. The Sabro influence adds a subtle creaminess to the fruit profile. Finish is off-dry and clean, with a lingering, juice-like aftertaste and no hop burn.

Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a soft, rounded, and pillowy texture. Moderate carbonation. No alcohol warmth. Smooth and creamy without any hop astringency or raw starch texture.
