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.

440ml can. Murky yellow, white head. Aroma of guava, mango, lychee, grapefruit. Taste of fresh tropical fruits, guava, lychee, mango, grapefruit, some dank herbal and piney notes at the end. Medium bodied. Solid as usual, though perhaps lacking some of the high end punchiness you normally get with a Wylam IPA.
