Description
In the Wild East, you have to work together. Therefore three friends joined forces and started to brew beer in the old smithery of Purtse castle. Their holy desire was to make beer so good that you would become sad when the glass started to empty.

The men of Purtse do not hold annual press conferences in Narva, nor do they give empty promises about improving everyday life of Ida-Virumaa. They are doing it here and now, because they like it wild in here.

Bottle from Stockmann Tallinn. Pours nice orange, kind of hazy (or muddy, what's the difference). Foamy and leaving some lacings. Nose is nice tropical, sweetish, some ripe tropical fruits and light hoppy grass. Tastes sweetish, tropical. These rough edges work well with the higher abv, quite nice actually. Decent DIPA.

Bottle from Stockmann, Tallinn. Pours deep orange, some foam that stays for quite long. Nose is malty, sweet fruits, not very elegant though and hops not that well integrated. Taste is sweetish, malty and with medium bitterness. Quite grainy flavours, not bad per se but somewhat hardy and that reduces its drinkability a bit.

Bottle from Stockmann, Tallinn. Pours somewhat hazy, quite a lot of foam on top. Nose has hops but unfortunately also some soapy thing going on. Tastes soft, malty, bit rough around the edges but still overall quite drinkable. Water feels somewhat hard, hops a bit harsh but if you are patient enough, you can still feel some fruity elements as well. Pretty basic but nothing really wrong with it either, drinks well enough.

On tap at P�rgu, pours a clear pale golden with a small beige head. Aroma brings out crisp grass, with some straw and biscuity malt. Flavour is crisp and grassy, with biscuity malt, grass, some herbal notes and a bit of vegetal character. Crunchy and cabbage notes on the finish. Not great.
