COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Two weeks ago the guys at Uinta decided to try something new, take one batch of Wyld Extra Pale and do a special, one of a kind edition. For this special edition Uinta acquired a shload of fresh Simcoe hops, enough to average 4lbs of hops per barrel of beer ( 1 beer barrel = 31 gallons). The result, we hope is one citrusy, resinous and sessionable sombitch! The "wet" in Wet n’ Wyld refers to the state of the hops. Most hops are dried to eliminate weight and spoilage, these are fresh off the vine, wet as nature made them. Wet n’ Wyld is draft only (no bottles) and will be available at the breweries pub and those pubs and bars that tend to give a shit about good local beer.

douglas88 (4479) - Salt Lake City, Utah, USA - NOV 6, 2012
On tap at the Bayou. Pours a clear golden color with a medium white head. A nice nose of floral hops, some earthy malt. Wasn’t as good as the regular Wildfire/Wyld: clear crisp flavors, light oranges, caramel. Quite light. Of course we need to keep in mind that this is a 4% IPA. Drinkable for sure and pretty tasty.

jredmond (4023) - Manhattan, New York, USA - OCT 31, 2012
Draft at pony bar HK with Brendan, streets and Annie. Pours a clear amber with light white lacing. Aroma is fresh pine and garlic. Mouthfeel is medium with notes of really just garlic and pine - but strangely it works! One of my favorite Uinta.

JCB (3806) - Durham, North Carolina, USA - JAN 25, 2013
On tap at Sam’s, Durham, sometime last fall. Golden orange pour, minimal carbonation, just a few apple juice bubbles. Sharpish nose, more lemongrass bite than the pungency of most wet hops I’ve had. Occasional sweetness in the taste, but a lot more leafy and sharply bitter notes. Decent brew, but wasn’t crazy about it.

Sledutah (3192) - Utah, USA - OCT 15, 2012
On tap at The Bayou
Appearance: Pours cloudy dark golden with a off-white head
Aroma of citrus and pine. Taste of pine resin
Wyld is one of my favorite session beers, but this wet hopped version took away from it’s smoothness and drinkability.

beerbill (3044) - Laurel, New York, USA - DEC 10, 2012
On draught. Pours yellow gold with a thin white head that quickly fades. Weak aroma of citrus and floral hops. The flavor is mild malt with the same weak citrus and floral hops. On the lighter side of medium bodied. So so.
