A decade since its debut and five years since its last version… We welcome the return of a collaboration with our friends at Yeastie Boys… and we’re bringing back this classic with a fresh twist. We believe it’s only fitting to revisit this beer again as part of our 25th birthday celebrations.

Bursting with Nelson Sauvin, Galaxy, and Nectaron hops, Wyx6 delivers an incredible vibrant fusion of white grape, passionfruit, and citrus, backed by a soft yet punchy bitterness.

That's damn good. Dank hops, smooth body, slight bitterness in the finish

Can from House Of Trembling Madness. Hazy golden body with a white head. No visible carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of melon, floral hops and lemon sponge. Flavour of mango and mandarin. Medium body with a smooth mouthfeel. Soft fizz. A typically excellent IPA from Wylam.

Can. A medium haze on this gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Airy smooth palate, mildly dry, reasonable fine carbonation on the back end, doesn't feel under carbonated. Light pale malts, a light creamy sweetness. Hops bring cooling pine and soft but notable bitterness and mild skunk. Bright but tangy hop fruits, stone fruits on the back end. Not getting any Nelson of note. Light and semi dry finish brings modest hop spice and leaves a mild but persistent tangy bitter linger. Stirs old memories does this brew. A hint of the bitter bastard that was Galaxy when it first arrived on these shores many years ago. Intriguing! And quaffable.

440ml can. Murky yellow, white head. Aroma is dank, peachy, tropical, vinous. Taste of peach, mango, tart gooseberry, white wine, grape, strong herbal and dank, pithy citrus. Medium bodied. Had high hopes for the return of this series and it delivered, superb IPA.
