Description
Wylam Brewery was set up in a disused dairy on a farm near Heddon on the Wall in May 2000 by John Boyle and Robin Leighton driven by their passion for real ale. The brewery grew rapidly on the strength of the quality of its ales, winning awards at festivals around the UK. They outgrew the original 1000L plant in 2006 and brought on-stream a new 3500L plant in August in a bespoke barn conversion. Since then they have enjoyed continued strong growth. In Summer 2016, the brewery moved to its current location at the same time expanding to a 30BBL plant.

Takket være seremonimester Melbergs resolutte handlekraft er vi atter tilbake i velkjent Mi2-stemning, og vi delikaterer oss igjen med en superb fatøl: utseende er lovende (uklar skittengul) og aromaen tilsier at her får vi rikelige doser av tropiske fruktinntrykk og ditto søt citrus. Fin bitterhet og god maltkropp. Krushable indeed, bare blide fjes rundt bordet!
