Wicklow Wolf Brennans Batch Brew 4-Pack brings together Irish brewing innovation and food sustainability in one refreshing, easy-drinking pale ale. This small-batch brew was developed in collaboration with Brennan’s Bread, using surplus white batch loaf to create a clean and slightly bready malt backbone. The result is a sessionable pale ale with a bright citrus finish, low bitterness and plenty of character. Perfect for BBQs, picnics or casual evenings, this four-pack is all about approachable flavour with an Irish twist.
Wicklow Wolf Brewing Company, based in Newtown Mount Kennedy, County Wicklow, was founded in 2014 by two friends with a shared passion for quality beer and sustainability. The brewery has carved out a name for itself in the craft beer Ireland scene with a strong core range, rotating specials, and limited releases that showcase creativity and attention to detail. They grow their own hops on a nearby farm and have gained widespread recognition for beers like Elevation Pale Ale, Arcadia Gluten Free Lager, and Apex Oatmeal Stout.
Wicklow Wolf’s Crossbreed Series highlights local partnerships and sustainable practices. Brennans Batch Brew and its canned companion Sliced Can both celebrate the use of real food waste in beer-making, transforming surplus bread into something flavourful and exciting. The brewery’s values centre around community, environmental care and pushing Irish craft beer to new heights. Whether you’re exploring something new in a craft beer shop Dublin or browsing for craft beer online, Wicklow Wolf is a trusted name.
This 4-pack pale ale is best paired with light and fresh fare. Serve with garlic and lemon chicken skewers, grilled halloumi and couscous salad, or seafood like calamari and fish tacos. The beer’s bready notes and clean finish balance well with soft cheeses—try brie or fresh goat’s cheese with a citrus drizzle. It also complements veggie flatbreads, roasted aubergine or herby potato salad.
For something sweet, go with lemon drizzle cake, shortbread, or vanilla bean ice cream. The beer’s light bitterness and citrus edge refresh the palate between bites. Whether you’re enjoying a full meal or grazing with friends, Brennans Batch Brew delivers satisfying refreshment.
