Commercial Description:
A special bottle conditioned ale to commemorate the return of the Theakston Brewery to the control of the family after a period of almost twenty years. Only 1500 bottles of the special bottle conditioned beer were produced and each bottle was filled, crowned and packaged personally by one of the Theakston family to show their thanks to their loyal cutomers over the years.

Slightly in reddish hue m murky copper looking ale, Small head on top. Aroma was of citric nose, slightly sour in character, apricot with gentle hop finish. Dry with low carbonation, spicy, nutmeg, light bitter hoppy feel. Rare beer , Thanks Doug .

Bottle #1335. Aroma is yeast and malt with notes of fruit. Cloudy yellow/golden, pours a small white head. Sweet malt flavour to start, with mild kumquat also. Tangy, malty and dry. Terrific, in that it is so rare! Thank You so much to my neighbour’s sister Dorothy!
