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.

Gyllengul med drag åt koppar med fingerstjock fluffigt skum. Arom av kaka, nästan lite digestivekex och så mjuk kola. Mycket tunn med en hög bitterbeska. Försvinnande lite maltsötma.

Brunsvart vätska med kaffefärgat skum. Lätta aromer av mjuk kaka och en aningens farinsocker. Lätt och mjuk i munnen. Mycket låg beska och en väldigt lätt maltkropp.

Bottle from Tesco. Surprised I hadn't rated this to date... It pours clear dark amber - brown with a decent frothy white cap. The aroma is earthy, nutty, dried leaves, grass, brown bread, rivita, wood shavings and leather. The taste is dry, dull bitterness, earthy, woody, nutty, digestive biscuits, dried leaves, smack of spice, leather, grass with a drying, nutty earth finish. Average body and moderate, fizzy carbonation. Pretty alright, doubt it deserves its 99 percentile though.

Cask at Old Dolphin, Derby. Pours “bitter brown” with a minimal white head. There is an aroma of malts mixed with fruit. In the mouth it is sweet and fruity, with apricots. Initially it has a buttery texture which eases into caramel. Finish is bitter and fruity. A simple beer but done very well.

Bottle from Morrisons. Pours a clear light golden colour with a large thick creamy white head. Aromas of biscuits, honey and floral hops. Taste has more honey, biscuits, floral, a touch of marmalade and some citrus pithy bitterness on the finish. Medium to full body, average carbonation and slightly oily mouthfeel. Nice, crisp and refreshing.
