A new way to enjoy our iconic Old Peculier! Until now our legendary Old Peculier has only been available as a cask conditioned beer on draught. However, we are proud to announce that the development of cold filtration has enabled us to apply a new conditioning technique to Old Peculier that ensures the unique flavours and aromas of the cask version are preserved. Served at a cooler temperature to suit contemporary tastes.

Brewed with only the finest malted barley, Challenger, Target and the majestic Fuggle hops. Fermented with the famous Theakston twin strain yeast to create its extra strength and complex character. The legendary Old Peculier is a deep, dark ruby coloured ale with a rich, fruity flavour with hints of black cherry and banana.

[Cask at GBBF] Dark brown. Pear aroma. Sweet, roasty and lightly woody with a solid malt back bone. Plenty of caramel and a touch of apples. Powerful salty finish.

(Cask conditioned). Good strong ale, well suited for a winter’s day. Full & mallty rich flavour with just the right acidity and sufficient hops. Haven’t had the bottled version, but from a well kept cask it’s a real treat.

Oak cask. Dark brown colour with a red hue. Nice malty aroma. Malty/sweet, slightly salty flavour. A little burning sensation, alcohol or spices? Nice hint of mould.
