Description
In 1858 Timothy Taylor began brewing beer in Cook Lane in the West Riding town of Keighley. He clearly struck upon a successful formula for in 1863 he set up and built a larger brewery at Knowle Spring, where the company has remained ever since.
The superb spring water that wells up from deep under the Pennines is still used today to produce the country's best traditional cask ales.
The brewery remains in the Taylor family and is now the last independent brewery of its type left in West Yorkshire. This independence enables Taylors to survive as one of the few brewers still brewing true cask ales in the same way it has always done."Taylor's Taste" is achieved by using only the finest natural ingredients, taking pride in the brewing process and allowing full time for the ales to ferment and mature, thereby creating a unique family of beers.
We have come a long way since 1858. Our beers have won many awards and worldwide acclaim. This is seen within our product range.

Can at home in Hackney - picked up from Waitrose. Pours clear honey-gold with a small, foamy white head. Lightly sweet with notes of toasted hay, a little orange peel, British yeast, sun-kissed grains, soft pine. Light bodied with average carbonation. Fresh grains in the finish, more citrus peel. OK overall.

Keg, half-pint in the Mason's Arms, Gargrave on 31st March 2023. Clean golden orange body, thin white head. Bland and pretty boring with a mini hop thing trying to happen, some slight malt action too.

Cask @ Churchill Arms. Ganska pigg cask det här. Hög sötma, hög fruktighet, låg bitterhet. Slinker ner men inget extra.
