Description
Pictish Brewing Company is a small independent brewery established in April 2000 by Richard Sutton. Early in 2013 Richard decided to opt for an easier life and skive off leaving things in the hands of his old friend Paul Wesley. We brew a wide variety of high quality cask conditioned ales and deliver direct to the licensed trade in the Lancashire, Manchester and West Yorkshire areas.

Cask at Cask Pub & Kitchen, Pimlico. Boozy, gin like aroma. Amber gold. Very clean and sweet with a decent grippy bitterness.

Fresh on at The Flying Horse Hotel in Rochdale, and nice and crisp in its initial pour. Hoppy in the main, perhaps hints of fruit but flavoursome regardless.

Cask from The Wellington, Birmingham. Dark clear gold with nice off white top, good lacing. Quite bitter and leafy but there is enough sweetness and fruitiness (lemon and berry notes) to ensure its not astringent. Medium bodied, goes down well. Decent.

Cask @ Fox And Goose, Hebden Bridge. Golden with a creamy head. Pleasantly textured mostly hoppy ale, some creaminess hence the night mouthfeel, hints of fruit.
