About

Irish homebrewer of five years who started with saccharomyces but is intrigued by the lesser explored brettanomyces and the yet to be explored wild Irish yeasts. The beer that piqued my interest in brewing with 100% Brett is Little Brett from Allagash and I’ve since then got to meet the mastermind behind the beer to pick his brain that has led me down this path.

Wide Street is a reference to my hometown Ballymahon which has one of Ireland’s widest streets……supposedly.

Wide Street Brewing Company is in it’s infancy and all the yeast I prop up and document in this blog will eventually be used in a small brewery in Ireland focusing directly on Brettanomyces and mixed culture brewing. Wide Street will eventually have a Wild Street.
