Beers [ edit ] Tetley's Original (left), Smoothflow (right) designs used during the 1990s and 2000s A Tetley's Cask beer pump in Wetherby, West Yorkshire. Aroma: a pretty typical sweet English malt profile - toffee and butterscotch. Definitely stronger on the nose than I would have expected for 3.6% ABV.Imperial – Originally created for the Teesside market, and at one point was advertised as "Teesside's favourite pint". It was launched nationally as a premium 4.3% cask ale in 2002. It used three separate yeasts and had eight months of development, but the variant has since been withdrawn. [30] It continues as a pasteurised ale in kegs.

In 2012, Tetley's was the eleventh highest selling beer brand in the United Kingdom. [4] It is the second highest selling ale brand in the world after John Smith's, with volumes of 700,000 hectolitres. [4] Its main products are Tetley's Cask and Tetley's Smoothflow.

Timothy Taylor’s Landlord is another option.Maps, Alan Godfrey; Ordnance Survey, Great Britain (31 August 1989). Old Ordnance Survey Maps of Yorkshire. ISBN 0-85054-250-2. There are many objects and records from the Tetley Brewery that have survived. The Tetley gallery holds a collection of hundreds of items relating to the history of the brewery, including artworks and artefacts, such as paintings, silverware and furniture, tools, and commemorative beers. A selection of original pub signs and bottles from the collection is displayed in a case on the ground floor, next to the bar and restaurant. [46]

Tetley's was established in 1822, by an ambitious young man called Joshua Tetley, with his experience in the family malting business and the belief in its motto ‘Quality Pays'. After nearly two centuries of perfecting the brewing process, the name Tetley's is synonymous with smooth, tasty beer created from a perfect combination of traditional and modern brewing techniques.

It is available in kegs and cans with a widget. It is sold overseas as Tetley's English Ale. [24] The same beer, but not nitrogenated and without the widget in the can, is sold as Tetley's Original. [25] The most obvious comparisons to Tetley’s would be other creamy bitters such as John Smith’s, Boddingtons, Worthingtons, or the other beers in the Tetley range. Alternatively, you could start to look at some ales that are a little more flavourful than Tetley’s.

Aftertaste: the flavours drop away slowly without much in the way of bitterness. Still that lingering sweetness from the malts - not cloying, still quite pleasant but also light. In 1993 Allied Lyons sold a 50 per cent stake in the company to Carlsberg. The brewery opened a museum on 19 March 1994. [13] The attraction proved popular; however, redevelopment of the land surrounding the brewery led to the attraction's closure on 7 April 2000. The building is now bars and restaurants. [14] By 1996, sales of Tetley Bitter were overtaken by sales of John Smith's, and the product has retained the number two ale position ever since. [15] This is largely attributed to Tetley's ineffective marketing campaigns. [12] In 1998 Tetley's was fully taken over by Carlsberg. In 2004 Tetley was dropped from the Carlsberg-Tetley name. [16] The company is now called Carlsberg UK Limited and is a part of Carlsberg AS group. In 2006, Tetley's sold 185million pints of beer in pubs. In the same year, the brewery's dray horses, which had made beer deliveries to pubs around Leeds, were retired. [16]Mouth feel: medium in feel with a lower to moderate carbonation. Very, very English, and I still don't quite get it. Makes the beer feel a bit flat in flavour, though maybe that is due to differences in climate between England and Queensland Australia. It is very smooth though. Taste: whilst it even tastes smooth (however that works!), the flavour is far more demure here than on the nose. Still the toffee with some buttery flavour and some toasted malts. Not as good as the nose due to the feel, but still quite nice for such a low ABV beer. Appearance: a pure golden-copper in colour with carbonation clinging to the glass rather than rising to the top. A thin off-white head (even with a vigorous pour) lasts the distance throughout the session. Looks pretty good for an English mid. Tetley's Smooth Ale is a creamy ale created with a nutty roasted, full-bodied flavour, classic hop aroma and crisp bitterness on the palate.
