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.

Bière bue a la pression au Hopi. Versée dans le verre, elle affiche un joli jaune juteux voilé d’un trouble blanc intense. La mousse tient correctement. Au nez, belle explosion tropicale : mangue, fruit de la passion, ananas, avec en arrière-plan une touche de bonbon poire/citron. En bouche, on retrouve ce bouquet exotique enrichi d’agrumes, une pointe de pamplemousse. L’ensemble est bien équilibré, la longueur est nette, persistante, mais sans excès d’amertume. Une NEIPA vraiment agréable.

Tap at FOB, Rimini, Italy. Pours pale gold, fairly transparent, with rather fine white foam. Aroma is intensely fruity, citrus and tropical. Body is average, with moderate carbonation. Taste is moderately acidic, with some sweetness behind. Final is average, tart, with just a touch of astringency.
