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.

Was zur Hölle habe ich da getrunken? Pluspunkte für die Kreativität, Abzug bei der künstlichen Vanille-Ananas-Süss-Bitter-Kombi.

[Cask at the Back of Beyond (JDW), Reading.] A copper coloured pour with a thin cream head; aroma of Demerara sugar; rich sugary taste with some butterscotch; and a dry biscuity finish with a light bitterness and lingering caramel and alcohol. A great beer on a cold and wet winter evening.

Heftige Nummer. Nicht mal so sehr die Prozente, sehr röstig und bitter. Eines ist ok, mehr ginge nicht. Für mich lieber etwas samtiger.
