Wiper and True – XX Gooseberry Wheat – International Women’s Day Beer

Description

XX is a celebration of the longstanding contribution of women to the world of beer, brewed for release on International Women’s Day. The creation of XX – from recipe development, brewing and packaging to sales and promotion – is entirely the work of the women from Wiper and True. Named to represent the female chromosomes, the brew is a Gooseberry Wheat brewed with the botanicals meadowsweet and heather. Botanicals were chosen as a tribute to our alewife predecessors, the original makers and sellers of beer, who used botanicals to flavour and preserve.

About the brewery

No ordinary brewers, Wiper and True set out with the aim of experimenting and playing around with whatever ingredients came their way; roasting their own malts, adding blackberries and chillies or ageing their beer with different kinds of wood. Wiper and True's approach has seen them already release some fine brews, and we're mighty excited to have them in our Honesty Boxes.
