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 the Hobgoblin, Reading. Amber with a thin loose white head; aroma of honey, citrus and grain; flavour is of honey, lightly toasted grains and a fresh nettley herbal bitterness; leading to a long gingery finish. It works for me, very drinkable.

Cask at the Kelham Island Tavern, Sheffield, England on 23rd January 2009. Pale gold premium ale. Utterly exquisite. Hempy hops with slight cheesy aromas and bitter cooked veg notes. Dry finish. The best beer I had drunk for a long time.

Cask-conditioned at the Bag ONails, Bristol 22/11/08. Almost black with a decent tan head that left a lot of lacing. Roast malt and dark chocolate aroma. Flavour had tonnes of roasted malt, a touch of toffee sweetness, dark slightly tart fruits and a long, bitter finish. Very drinkable and excellent.

Cask-conditioned at the Bag ONails, Bristol 20/11/08. Clear gold in colour with a decent white head. Citrus hop aroma with a touch of tropical fruit. Flavour had some sweet malt before the juicy hops took over, with more citrus, a hint of pine and a long, dry finish. Very good.
