Description
Brewed in Silchester and drawing inspiration from new world hops, Germany’s malts and beer styles from across the globe, we vow to make your drinking experience as enjoyable as our brewing.

The Brewery was taken over in early 2022. The new owner then bought Boss Brewing Company in Swansea. Boss went into liquidation, but restarted, and in 2023 Wild Weather closed the Silchester site and relocated to join Boss in Swansea.

Cask at Craft Theory 2022. Aroma is malts, grainy. A murky opaque chestnut. Thin foamy beige head. Light-medium bitter. Sour berry edge. But all a bit 'bunged in'. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Flat carbonation. Long finish. One of those old school beers from a Craft brewery that feels like they were having to remember what to do.

Cask at PoW, Farnborough. Aroma is malty, chocolatey, with a hint of vanilla. Dark. Cola tint. Tan head disappears almost entirely. Medium-heavy bitter. Black coffee and dark chocolate. The vanilla does come through but more into the finish. Thick bodied. Oily. Flat carbonation. Long astringent finish. Big stout but the vanilla gets lost in the mix.
