Beers similar to Wookey Jack

Firestone Walker Brewing Company

Black IPA·United States·8.3% ABV·One of 75 Black IPAs in hopIQ·

hopIQ found 10 beers that share Wookey Jack's bitter and citrusy character. Wookey Jack is an unfiltered black IPA built on rye, first released in 2012, retired in 2016 and brought back in 2022 and again in 2026. Malted rye and a dash of crystal rye add a spicy, rustic grain note beneath dark malts that stay light on roast. The dry hopping is heavy and citrus-led: orange peel, grapefruit and ripe peach sit over dank resin. The body is full and slightly chewy, and the finish balances light cocoa against a firm, lingering bitterness.
