2023’s Dark Harvest was designed together with Matt Brynildson, Brewmaster at Firestone Walker, a legend of the US craft beer industry, renowned for his extensive knowledge of and passion for all things hops.
Dark Harvest takes influence from FW’s ‘Wookie Jack’ with the inclusion of rye to create a broader malt bill as well as the soft chocolate malts seen in previous editions. An unmissable ale.
A complex and beguiling IPA underpinned by a shared passion for the unique and fleeting nature of its key ingredient.
Up front the aroma brings to mind peaches, dark chocolate and spiced citrus. On the palate, roasty mocha notes meld artfully with the sweet and high tropical characters of the fresh hops. This one WOWS at every step.
