Description
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 O'Brien's, Athlone [290318]
A3, N7, T8, P4, O15 3.7
Very dark brown, seems hazy, bubbly tan head dissipates away quickly maybe due to the flour
Aroma of sweet orange squash, some Terry's Choc Orange
Taste of orange oil, dark Terry Choc Orange, had a few chocolate orange stouts and this is the most orangey i've had. Nice orange flavour as well, dark chocolate malts underneath, soft roast
Palate - Soft carb, medium body, smooth texture, light sweet. Finish as main flavour, plain chocolate and orange 4
Overall - Don't get brown bread and marmalade, more the Terry's and it's very good at that
