hopIQ found 10 beers with the same citrusy and bitter character as Wookey Jack. 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. Ranked by flavour match rather than popularity.
