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.

29th Oct 2016: cask half-pint in the Station Hotel, Oakengates. Clean golden body, white topping. Hop centric with a slight citrus leaning: not unlike so many golden citrus flavoured brews dominating the UK beer scene at the moment.

Half pint, hand pulled cask ale at Wellington, shared with Finn. Crocheted lacing from a stable filmy layer. Bright golden body. Moderate aroma of mid-sweet malts and dried fruits. Jam-like flavours of peaches, dried fruits and mild malty sweetness. Rounded bitter tail. Medium bodied. Drinks very well (Birmingham 21.09.2016).

Cask-conditioned at Cask Pub & Kitchen, London 22/8/2016. Golden in colour with a small, white, head. Hay, floral, sweetish cereal malts, leafy hops, and some stone fruit character. Served too warm and just about acceptable.
