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 thanks to bu11zeye. Pours with a clear copper body and a fading white head. Aroma of grainy, huskiness, bitter and estery. Taste is of mild fruity esters, grainy hay and decent bitterness. Dry and fizzy mouthfeel.

500ml bottle. Copper with small cream head. Citrus and biscuit aromas. Fruity with hop bitterness. Enough malt in the background to balance. Creamy mouthfeel, but slightly excessive bubbles. [4.0] More English beer in decent condition now in Australia and I’ve cooled on this a fair bit. Still pretty good, reliably too fizzy.

Cask (@ Bricklayer’s Arms, Putney): Deep ruby-amber coloured, small lacey brownish head; dry hoppy and roast-malty nose with a subtle, but distinctive fruitiness in the background; moderate bitter flavour, light bodied, but not watery, smooth; slightly lingering moderate fruity-bitter finish. Pleasant, a fine session brew.........
