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.

Keg at BDSB / Londkn. Pours black-brown with a creamy, tan head. The aroma holds plenty of rose water, faint roast, a little cocoa, Turkish delight. Medium sweet flavour with some ashy roast, baking cocoa, more rose water, burnt toast. Medium bodied with average carbonation: finishes with a nice nice rose water and bittersweet baking cocoa. Quite a novelty. An enjoyable mix.

Keg at Brewdog Shepherds Bush, during the tap takeover. A opaque black coloured pour with a lasting light tan head. Aroma is bug rose water, rose petal, faint coconut, nutty brown malts. Perfume on the nose. I think they went the wrong way with the blend. Flavour is composed of semi sweet nutty malts, tangy rose, smooth coconut, perfume, . Palate is smooth, moderate carbonation, ok. Too much perfume.
