Since we started brewing beer we've always been Team All Grain and slightly suspicious of extract kits - but is this fair? Here we put it to the test by brewing Woodforde's own extract kit of their popular amber session ale Wherry alongside two all grain clones of our own creation. The result of the blind tasting was interesting and unexpected so the Clone Wars saga will definitely continue!
