Wilde Child

4% abv

This beer is an exact clone and pays homage to the first ever all grain beer that Wilde Child’s owner produced on a homebrew scale back in 2011. A simple grain bill of pale and wheat malts backed up by the winning combination of Cascade and Citra hops equal one perfectly sessionable beverage.

Vocation

Created to have all the hoppy goodness of an IPA, but brewed to a sessionable strength. Its intense fruit-salad character comes from generous additions of US West Coast hops. A full bodied and fruity beer, with notes of passion fruit, grapefruit, gooseberry, pineapple and mango.

The concept was to create a juicy tropical beer. A brew you can sit on and drink all day, rammed with juicy malts and huge tropical aromas of mango and grapefruit. Massive additions of American hops are added to the whirlpool giving huge hop flavour. The beer is then dry hopped for days, driving the punchy aromas so you can smell it from miles away!

Bootleg

Clean taste, light straw colour and crisp carbonation. We then added Ella and Summer Australian hops with Ella bringing light, fruity, gently herbal notes blending perfectly with the balanced melon and peach characteristics of Summer. A refreshingly different spin on lager.

A distinctively fresh bittersweet, still, cloudy cider. Appley aroma with peaty undertones, this medium dry cider is just challenging enough to be easy drinking. A real taste of the orchard for those ready to embrace proper cider.

A heap of Topaz hops take the fore on this one with that classic 'Wilde Child' haze to boot. Seriously smashable session beer.

Vocation

We’ve set out to prove that an easy drinking, everyday beer can still be special. Layers of US hops are set against a backbone of British malts, so what this beer lacks in strength, it makes up for in character. Look out for fresh flavours and aromas of pine, peach, lychee & citrus fruits, tempered by a smoothly rounded bitterness to leave you wanting more.

We wanted to create a light, crisp, punchy, go to beer! A beer that you know you can pick up and appreciate or simply get it down ya neck. Extra pale base malts are used to keep it crisp and give the hops a great platform to dance on. Masses of hop additions during the whirlpool and a huge dose of dry hops make this a brilliantly 'easy' IPA.
