The brewery: "Timothy Taylor established the brewery in the centre of Keighley in 1858, moving to the Knowle Spring, our present site, in 1863. The principle of never accepting second best was laid down from day one and remains with us still."
The beer: "Celebration Ale was originally brewed under the name Royal Ale, to commemorate the visit to the brewery of HRH The Prince of Wales in 2001. Then in 2008 it reappeared as Celebration Ale, mainly in cask format, to celebrate our 150th anniversary.....It has now been lovingly rebrewed to its original recipe, to celebrate the coronation of the King on Saturday 6 May 2023. Celebration Ale is a strong English amber ale with a rich bronze colour and weighs in at 5.0% ABV. It’s robust with a fruity, candied peel aroma and has subtle hints of dried fruits, orange, and apricot on the tongue."
Lovely beer this, but then I wouldn't expect anything less from TT's. Lovely full bodied flavour. Fabulous pub too.
