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.

Clear and golden with a creamy white head and some subtle biscuit notes on the nose. Sweet biscuity malt, smooth and creamy and just a little kick of bitterness in the finish (maybe a bit naughty for a mild)

Bradford Beer Festival 2023. Deeper golden coloured ale. Somewhat bitter, which is dominant but its hoppiness is not far behind.

Same beer as the now renamed Landlord Dark. Bottle from Booths Supermarket, Media City. Black with an extremely thin off-white head. Easy textured dark-malt ale, somewhat sweet, with this fusion becoming its flavour. Much better than the cask version I first sampled a decade ago although that was probably a bad batch

Pours dark brown, looks almost black in the glass. One finger of tan coloured head, showing pretty good retention throughout the last sips and leaving a bit of lacing. A soft malty aroma, quite vivid for a mild ale. A slight roasted malts base (hints of coffee) overcome by soft notes of nuts and chocolate, with a cola-like, slightly sugary sweetness background. There's also a hint of fruitiness, i can't pick anything specific but i'd say something in the middle of citrus and berries. Taste notes as per aroma, with (ripe) citric fruitiness showing up more clearly and giving a light refreshing feeling to the soft maltiness. Mild in both sweetness and bitterness and very well balanced throughout. Light bodied, light to medium carbonation, super easily drinkable as obvious but smooth/soft enough if you leave in the mouth. A very pleasant dark mild.
