The William Wygston

A child friendly pub serving food with WiFi in Wigston.

Details

This Wetherspoon pub is named after William Wygston, several times Mayor of Leicester and a benefactor to the city. The rents from his estate in Wigston supported the hospital he built, where Leicester Grammar School now stands.

This pub does not appear to have any special historical connections. However, the town is an ancient one. Wigston Magna gets its name from 'Viking's Tun' or 'settlement'. The Old English word 'viking' means 'pirate'.

Drinks

	Drink	%	Brewery
	Abbot Ale	5.0	Greene King PLC
Full flavoured, smooth and mature taste with fruit cake characters , a malty richness and superb hop balance. Tasting Notes: Mahogany in colour and brewed for longer to create a rich malty, and mature flavour.
	Exmoor Gold	4.5	Exmoor Ales Ltd
In the world of beer the eyes have it when it comes to ordering ale, something that Exmoor completely understand back in 1986 when they produced the first modern Golden Ale, Exmoor Gold. Tasting Notes: In the glass, Exmoor Gold is an appetising and enticing gold in colour. The nose is an interplay between a fresh bouquet of grassy and floral hop and a subtly soft, fluffy caramel-tinged maltiness. The palate sees more balance between gentle grainy maltiness and sprightly floral, citrusy fresh hop fruitiness
	Ruddles Best	3.7	Greene King PLC
Hoppy citrus undertones, balanced with bitterness and light sweetness. Packed with soft fruit aromas. Tasting Notes: Chestnut Brown in colour with hoppy citrus undertones and soft fruit aromas.
	Sharp's Doom Bar Amber Ale	4.0	Sharp's Brewery Ltd
Doom Bar is a perfectly balanced beer combining subtle yet complex flavours, Doom Bar is both satisfying and deliciously moreish. Tasting Notes: “The aroma of Doom Bar combines an accomplished balance of spicy resinous hop, inviting sweet malt and delicate roasted notes. The mouth feel is a perfectly balanced and complex blend of succulent dried fruit, lightly roasted malty notes and a subtle yet assertive bitterness. The bitterness remains into the finish with dry fruity notes which implore the drinker to go back for more.” Stuart Howe, Head Brewer.
