Description

B&T began brewing as an independent brewer in 1982 under the name Banks & Taylor's, with the aim to produce traditional cask ales using only the finest raw materials.

In 1994 Banks & Taylor's became B&T Brewery Ltd and continues to produce top quality, award winning cask ales today. Using traditional methods and a combination of pale, wheat, crystal and roast malts along with Challenger, Golding's and Cascade whole hops, B&T are able to produce over 30 different beers, each with their own distinct character and flavour.

Seasonal specials are produced to celebrate or commemorate the many different traditions, folk laws and historical events that have taken place locally.

In 2020 the Brewery was shut down and beers contract brewed at 3 Brewers.

Cask at the Willow Walk, JDW - London. Pours clear gold with a creamy white head. The aroma holds dry gains, hay, citrus rind. Light sweet flavor with notes of cigarette ash, chlorine, smoke, some astringency. Light bodied with fine carbonation. Finishes with more chlorophenol character, ash, smoke, some citrus, dry grains, bready sugars. A bit flawed.

On cask at the Standing Order. Appearance - golden amber with a nice lacy head. Nose - light apple with a toffee backdrop. Taste - more tangy apple. Malt lurking. Palate - light to medium bodied with a creamy texture and a long dry finish. Overall - a clanger wasn’t dropped at all. A decent bitter.

Cask at the Wellington Arms, Bedford. Looking pitch black at first, but actually a dark reddish chestnut, with a unruly tan head; aroma of stewed plums; soft plummy fruit taste with a smooth pulpy body and a touch of licorice and chocolate in the background; then a pleasantly dry, roasted malt finish with lingering fruit. Really good.
