About
Yorkshire’s Oldest Brewery. Samuel Smith brews a wide range of high quality beers, solely from authentic natural ingredients. The brewery still uses stone Yorkshire squares to ferment all its ales and stouts (except Sovereign and Extra Stout) and the same yeast strain has been used since the 1800s. Whole dried English hop varieties such as Fuggles and Goldings are used to add bitterness and aroma to Samuel Smith’s traditional ales in the antique boiling coppers. Samuel Smith’s uses oak casks for all its naturally conditioned ale. The casks are made and repaired at the Old Brewery by the brewery’s two full time coopers.

Pours with a fizz but falls flat right after. Coppery colour, clear. A bit oxidized. Sweet and tart edged, rich pear, smells blossomy, soapy, a hidden berry and aroma’s of oak barrel. Light leathery tannins. Quite decent.

Не зашёл стаут. Вроде классика Английсская, сухость кофе, горчинка шоколада, даже небольшая сливочность. Но какая то какашка просачивается в конце. Кароче небольшой облом.

Нормальный питкий лагер. Пил в знаменитом пабе Джона Сноу. Красота убранства паба безусловно способствовало приятному соитию. Хмель кстати напомнил мне Кельш, так же похрустывает на языке.
