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.

Nice looking golden ale with a slight haze, a frothy / creamy white head and light biscuit malt and a touch of lemon on the nose. Semi-creamy mouthfeel, light biscuit malt to the fore with some floral notes and dry citrus bitterness in the finish.
