Description
Wild Card Brewery was founded in 2012 at the Ravenswood Industrial Estate Walthamstow.

We brewed Mon-Fri and come the weekend, we would open the brewery doors and serve up our beers. With support from the local community our shed became one of Walthamstow's best loved bars, hosting beer festivals, tap takeovers and live music.

Meanwhile, in the brewery, Jaega was working away, tweaking old recipes and coming up with new ones. By 2017 she had 2 award winning beers under her belt and was struggling to make enough beer to keep up with demand - we were going to need a bigger brewery. So in 2017, we started a crowdfunding campaign to help us move the brewery to a bigger site.

In 2018 the brewery moved over to Lockwood Way, where we have doubled capacity - which means lots of Wild Card beer for all.

Wild Card Brewery now has two tap rooms in Walthamstow, and our beer is available in pubs, bars, restaurants and supermarkets across the UK.

Pleasant enough. Some citric notes, lemony hops, dry pale malts, low bitterness. Not much to it but drinks fine.

Tap at FFB20, shared with the crew. I only took numerical notes while having this one.

Аромат сразу немного странный, вроде и есть нечно подобное фруктов, но как будто они не свежие что ли, легкая сладость. Цвет бледно желтый, пенки почти нету. Вкус тоже смущает. Вроде и есть фруктовые ноты, но они как будто слегкая прелые и затхлые. Послевкусие с легкой кислинкой, даже особо ничто не читается во вкусе.

Аромат интересный, вроде и шоколадный стаут но фрукты есть также при этом, а вернее как будто дольки фруктов добавили в какой то десерт. Цвет черный, пенки почти нету. Вкус тоже начинается с шоколада, немного темных фруктов, карамели и десертности с кислинкой. В целом можно выпить треть бокала на раз.
