Hand pulled pint at the Wrekin Inn on 20th February 2026. Clean and clear light golden body, white crust on top. I am not a fan of single hop beers usually but Pictish seem to get it right more often than not. This was the best Riwaka Hop beer I've had so far.

Cask gravity at Reading BF 08. Pale gold with thin white head. Pale hoppy beer, fairly distinctive hop. Very acidic aroma. Very ascetic, but pretty good and very balanced. Actually as it went down I thought it was excellent.
