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.

Bottle from Tapping the Admiral. Ruby brown,cleae,very little head. Malty nose, hint of liquorice. Spicy, malty, herbal taste. Long sweetish finish with red berry in the finish. Nicely carbonated. So. One as you like and certainly enjoyable.

Keg at Cronx Bar. It pours cloudy golden with a medium white head. The aroma is fresh, quite juicy, stone fruit, peach, pine and bread. The taste is crisp, quite clean, restrained bitterness, a bit green, pins needles, candied orange, tangerine, peach, straw and bread with a dry finish. Medium body and moderate carbonation. Rather well rounded and moreish. Nice.

20th May 2017: Cotteridge Tasting #3. Thanks Mrs Scopey for the two 330ml cans of this. Hazy golden yellow body, white topping. Defo Rhubarb in the nose, not so noticeable in the taste. Light acidic feel to the flavour, intersting and different.

Taste comprises rhubarb and custard, citric pith, peach yoghurt, straw, light bread. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a tart rhubarb fruit edge. Solid for the style.
