Even More Hydra – Etnyc Edition is a fruited sour ale created by Evil Twin Brewing in collaboration with Mortalis Brewing Company, two breweries widely recognized for experimental smoothie-style sour beers. The beer is part of the brewery’s Hydra series, known for combining intense fruit character with dessert-inspired ingredients and thick, smoothie-like texture.
This edition blends blackberry, raspberry, blueberry, marshmallow, and cacao nibs, creating a layered flavor profile that balances tart berry notes with subtle sweetness and chocolate nuances. With an alcohol content of 7% ABV, the beer combines the freshness of fruit-forward sour ales with the richness associated with pastry-inspired craft beers.
The texture is dense and creamy, resembling a fruit smoothie more than a traditional sour beer, which has become a defining characteristic of the Hydra series. Reviews from craft beer platforms frequently highlight the beer’s strong berry expression, balanced acidity, and smooth mouthfeel.
The addition of cacao nibs and marshmallow introduces extra depth without overpowering the fruit components, resulting in a complex but approachable flavor profile. Produced in limited batches, Even More Hydra – Etnyc Edition reflects Evil Twin Brewing’s experimental brewing philosophy and its focus on bold ingredient combinations.
The beer has gained strong recognition within the international craft beer community, particularly among enthusiasts of modern sour and pastry-style beers.
