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.

Bottle that the owner of our holiday cottage left for us - cheers! Amber with a white head and a middling fizz. Nice and malty with some floral notes, a touch of lemon and a mild flinty bitterness. Your average bitter, but well executed. Oddly, better in bottle form than I remember it being on cask.

Bottle from Morrisons. Clear golden body with a thin white head. Steady carbonation. Faint lacing. Aroma of stainless steel, rust and red apple. Flavour of earth, peppery hops and orange marmalade. Thin body with a watery, slightly oily texture. Light fizz. It doesn’t smell great, but the sharp, hoppy taste is quite nice.

Bottle from Morrisons. Clear amber body with a thin off-white head. Low carbonation. Patchy lacing. Aroma of tea, nuts and toffee. Flavour of caramel and rust. Thin to medium body with a slick texture. Soft fizz. A touch too sharp for me to truly love it, but it's great to try a new release from Timothy Taylor.

Cask from the Generous Briton, Loughborough. Brownish goals, clear with a small white lead. Lots of lacing. Sweet toffee, fresh.y baked bread and biscuit spread in the aroma. Sweet taste with light fruity hops balancing out the finish. Caramel syrup in the aftertaste. Simple and very traditional but a good English beer.
