Wold Top Beer/Lager

Wold Top- Lager/Beer


Yorkshire based Wold Top, Winner of SIBA North Gold Award for specialty beers Nov 2009 and Highly Commended in the Free From Awards 2010. This beer is an interesting mix of an ale with lager hops, more in the realm of a lager but still with a bitter sweet taste of an ale.

The smell is a pleasant smell of hops and bitterness. The lager holds a very nice head throughout the drinking process. Its refreshing with a bitter sweet after taste, overall a very pleasant experience. A nice point also is that the beer can be found for as low as £1.50 in farm shops around Yorkshire. Its also stocked in some pubs in Leeds and Harrogate, such as the Harrogate and Leeds Tap.

A pleasant beer through and through,  it really does taste and look like a proper lager, even to the extent it tastes better then a fair few lagers that contain gluten, (in my humble opinion of course). 

Alc:4.5

Ingredients: Water, Barley malt, Maize, Hops and yeast.

My rating: 7/10

The Gluten Free Beer Blog

Hello there and welcome to my humble blog where I try and help fellow celiac's and people wishing for a little less gluten in there lives to find a damn nice beer to drink.


The general idea behind this blog is to share my opinion of what i think is either a good value or just a good tasting gluten free beer. While I am by no means an expert in the field of beer i have tasted many of the common and less common beers out there and i believe i can give a reasonable assumption of something that at least looks and tastes like beer. This may sound a bit preachy and readers may find them selves thinking, "well how bad could gluten free beer be". Well to put it simply, .......bad.


I must stress though that my short little reviews are just my opinion, everyone has different tastes and likes different types of beer. My main hope is to enlighten some people to the wide variety of choice that is out there for those either stuck with or interested in a gluten free diet.
