On cask @ the Stockbridge Tap. Pours golden with a light haze and a nice head. The nose is of yeast and flowers. The taste confirms the flowers but also brings forward some lemon notes. The palate is light to medium in body with a light creamy texture and a dry clean finish. Overall, it’s refreshing but maybe the finish is a little too hoppy for a session ale.

Cask at Market Porter, Boro Mkt, London. A golden coloured pour with a thin white head on top. Hoppy, citrus fruit aroma. Tastes hoppy, dry, bitter and some citrus fruit. A decent ale from Pictish.

Cask-conditioned at the Bag O’Nails, Bristol, 20/4/08. Golden coloured with next to no head. Grapefruit and grass hop aromas. Slightly sweet malt flavours before the citrus hops kicked in, culminating in along, dry finish. Another well-balanced Pictish beer.
