9 Beers to Christmas: 8 Wired Rewired Brown Ale
What a treat. The third beer in my countdown takes me back to 8 Wired in New Zealand.
Brown ales are not my favorite style, but Rewired may make me reassess. It poured a dark mahogany with a solid two finger head. The first thing to surprise me was how full the mouthfeel was. If Newcastle Brown is a comparison, there is no comparison. Rewired was malty, nutty, with a hint of tart, and a spicy/hoppy finish.
It was really outstanding. If you've yet to experience New Zealand craft beer, you are missing out. Rewired is highly recommended.
