Pilot Boat Inn, Station Road, Bembridge, PO35 5NN, England
Description
Wight Knuckle Brewery was founded in 2021, by brothers (Fergus & Edward) and dad (George Bristow), and is based out of the Pilot Boat in Bembridge.
We hope to bring an end to the bland European lagers that are ever-present in our Island pubs and restaurants and lead the way in bringing craft, modern beers to the Isle of Wight with the Island's first microbrewery. Using only the highest quality natural British ingredients, and brewing in a sustainable way, we want to bring our passion for the Island into every beer we brew. We are proud to say that all of our natural beers are unfined, unfiltered, unpasteurised and 100% vegan.

1/3 pint, on tap at Pilot Boat Inn. Patchy, white head, next-to-clear golden body, fair lacing. Mild hop fruity smell, leafy. Flavoured with ripe citrus and leafy hops. Short, mid-dry hop fruity end. Quite alright with the home made pizza. (Bembridge, IoW, 20.10.2022).

Half-pint as Faux Lager 4.9 % abv, draught at Cowes Ale House. Shared with Finn. Next-to-clear amber body, patches on the surface, clingy lacing. Subdued smell of grain with a scent of grassy hops. Mixed taste of cereal malts, grass, and noble hops. Pale malt-driven finish. Clean mouth feel. Just alright, (Cowes 20.10.2022).
