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.

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.
