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: Poured a super carbonated bubble filled golden with a white bubble head. Aroma is of tropical juices, pineapple and banana. Taste is super juicy hops, more pineapple, some citrus, tangy finish on the tongue.

330ml can. Poured a crystal clear golden colour with a mostly lasting thin white head. The aroma is malt, lactose, big pineapple. The flavour is moderate sweet, light bitter, with a crisp, creamy, light tart pineapple, mineral, fake sugar, chemical, light floral hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Not the worst beer I’ve tasted. Tastes like a simple base beer with lots of adjuncts though.
