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.

Tap at BPBW 2025. Golden body, off-whtie head. Slightly oxidized aroma, showing some floral hops though. Lightly vinous, soft taste, white wine mostly, bit minerally, light maltiness, quite soft. Actually pretty nice, if perhaps sadly a bit past its prime.

Can, with the CZ contingent, at BPBW 2025. Tap at BPBW 2025. Bit hazy yellow-golden body, white head. Lychee, citric notes, dryish, well integrated hops. Similar taste - lychee and citrus notes, some bitterness, dry finish, lightly oxidized but still works!

Tap at BPBW 2025. Clear golden body, off-white head. Sweetish aroma, malty touches, bit herbal. Lean, dry taste, some wine-like vibes, guess that's Hüll Melon action, bit herbal, low bitterness. Pretty good stuff, a clear, drinkable, bit different hellesoid.

Tap at BPBW 2025. Black body, off-white head. Creamy aroma, chocolate, roast, raisins, light oxidation. Tart, bit oxidized roasty taste, some raisins, bit ashy, smooth and sweetish. Odd, all over the place, but kinda works?!

Can @ Telfords. Close to pitch black body under a big, foamy beige head. Aroma has dark malt, roasted coffee and dark chocolate. Taste is very smooth, mild roasted, dark malt, some coffee and dark chocolate and medium bitterness. Balanced body with a smooth, nice aftertaste as well. Nice and tasty stout without any nonsense that shouldn’t be able to offend anyone.
