Wicklow Wolf was established in late 2014 after the meeting of two likeminded friends with a common interest in good beer. Quincey Fennelly and Simon Lynch both fell in love with craft beer while living in California for many years. Setting up a brewery together was always inevitable.

Can from Beer 52. Pours a goldish shade of yellow with a small frothy transient white head. Lemon and some peach in the aroma. Flavour in the mouth starts off a horrid bitter lemon, but thankfully this doesn’t last. Lemon does linger but diluted by sweet malts, grains and golden syrup. More conventional bitterness in the finish. Worth persevering with.

[33cl can from Beer52.] A pale straw coloured pour with a loose white head; peachy aroma and taste; rather thin grainy body; and a dry finish with a chewy gentle bitterness. Light and rather forgetable.
