Description
In 1992, Paul Theakston took a daring leap into the unknown. As a fifth generation brewer of his family company, he chose to leave T&R Theakstons following its sale to a national brewery. Instead, he chose to champion independent brewing in Yorkshire and built his own brewery in the very same town, Masham. The brewhouse contains a mixture of tradition and innovation, using the Yorkshire Square Fermentation system which we hold dearly. Our original brewhouse was built from reclaimed equipment which we still use to this day.

Bottle at home in Hackney - picked up from HOTM. Pours clear honey-gold with a creamy, mostly white topping. Lightly sweet with notes of sun-baked pale grains, orange peel, grass, husk. Light bodied with fine to average carbonation. Bittersweet finish, more peel, grass, a little piney impression. Not bad overall.

440ml can from Asda - Clear amber with a pinkish hue, white head also with a pink tinge. Nose is raspberry ripple ice-cream, taste has a smooth but overly sweet chocolate, bit has a tangy raspberry finish. Not normally my cup of tea, but it was okay.
