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.

Keg @ Brewdog, Birmingham. Pours a deep reddish amber, small off-white head. Aroma is sweet malt. Taste is fairly light, moderately sweet malts, caramel traces. Quite a good American red ale.

Farewell Bespin Bottleshare. Thanks to Leighton. Light haze on this gold beer, good pale cream colour head. Palate is airy and dry with decent fine carbonation. Light dry malts, mildly sweet. Tangy floralness. Light tangy citrus. Orange peel. Hop spice and mild pine. Dry bitterish finish. Not too bad.

Bottle shared in London - cheers! Pours clear gold with a creamy white head. The nose holds rindy citrus, dry pale bread, melon. Light sweet flavour with sugary pale bread, tangerine, meringue, low bitterness. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Lightly bitter to finish, simple pale malts, white bread, lemon rind. Uninspiring but OK.
