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.

(Can) Pours clear yellow with tiny white head. Aroma of pineapple with somewhat confronting notes that remind me of durian. Medium body, smooth with fine carbonation. Nice pale ale with pineapple and lactose. Pleasant bitter finish. Very nice.

Cask @ Percy Shaw, Halifax. Amber with a creamy head. Has a hoppy nose with a more mid-malty taste and an easy enough texture, but no fruity kick.
