Wylie Brewery

Wylie Brewery Beyond The Wall is a refined Scottish Export that honors historical brewing traditions with a complex yet approachable sensory profile. A robust foundation of toasted malt drives the experience, evoking the warmth of freshly baked bread. Deep layers of dark fruit, specifically plum and raisins, provide a sophisticated ester profile that is further enriched by the thick, sugary character of molasses. This medium-bodied ale balances its malt-forward richness with a subtle, dry roasty finish. The result is a smooth, traditional expression that prioritizes malt complexity and dark sugar depth over hop presence, remaining faithful to the heritage of the style.

Appearance. Deep copper to dark brown (15-18 SRM). The beer is brilliant to clear, topped with a low to moderate creamy, off-white head with fair retention.

Aroma. Moderate to high malt intensity featuring rich caramel, toffee, and toasted breadcrumbs. Distinct esters reminiscent of plum and raisins are evident, alongside a sugary molasses quality. Hop aroma is very low to absent, with only a faint earthy hint allowable.

Taste. The palate leads with a medium toasty-bready malt flavor followed by complex overtones of molasses and caramel. Dark fruit notes of raisins and plums add depth. Bitterness is low and strictly functional, balancing the malt without adding significant hop flavor. The finish is clean with a slight roasty dryness that prevents the malt-forward profile from being cloying.

Mouthfeel. Medium body with a moderately creamy texture. Carbonation is medium-low, contributing to a smooth and soft mouthfeel. There is no perceived alcohol warmth.
