Hop Head

Been to a good pub, or bad, lately? Found a bar with a great selection of beer? Looking for a new local or somewhere to visit on holidays?

Hop Head

Anyone (in Canberra or otherwise) been to the Wig and Pen recently?

The two seasonals are an 'Autumn Ale' and the 'Hop Head.'

Both are pretty tasty pales, but the 'Hop Head' wins in my opinion, as they are serving it through a cylinder full of fresh Tassie cascade hops.

Very tasty, but hard to drink a whole pint. It burns slightly on the way down.

They changed the tower of hops in the morning, and I had mine in the afternoon of the same day. It's supposed to be perfect after 24 or so hours.
