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.

Cask gravity at Bricklayers Arms 2nd Annual Yorkshire BF 08. Amber with lasting beige head. Caramel, some red fruit, but fairly subtle. Nice condition in mouth. Very drinkable ESB. Has hints of the good stuff, but that may have been my cold affecting my taste buds.

Cask at the Brown Cow, Bingley, 19-05-06 It’s good to have a beer in its heartland, somehow it just gives it the little something extra its like playing at home in football I suppose. Poured amber coloured and with a nice hint of malt and hops on the nose. A class bitter in every way and its no suprise that its won so many accocolades it just tastes great when on form and can easily send many johnny come latelies scuttling, lovely fresh fruity beer that ticks all the right boxes.
