Commercial Description:
Bottled, Pasteurised;
First brewed in the Summer of 2004 to celebrate the 30th Anniversary of CAMRA and named after ’Paradise Field’, a piece of land on the outskirts of Masham, which contained a small orchard. The field, purchased by my great-great grandfather, Robert Theakston, was where he built the current Theakston Brewery in 1870. A full-bodied ale, using pale ale malt and an exotic blend of old and new world full hop flowers, including Cascade to give a light, lusciously fruity flavoured taste. Brewed using the finest quality natural ingredients and over 180 years of brewing wisdom.

From bottle. Pleasant fruity but tangy aroma. Clear golden colour with a thin white head. Thin in flavour with hints of fruit. Crisp ale but a little weak in texture. A little disappointing.

500ml bottle from Waitrose, Bracknell. A bright amber colour with a creamy white head; semmed heavily carbonated when first poured but soon settled. Aroma of malt and perhaps a hint of apple; very light and fruity, without being watery. Moderately bitter finish. Pleasant, but unexceptional.

Bottle, a clear golden amber with a white frothy head. An enjoyable fruity aroma with plenty of juicy malt. A little astringent on the palate, dominanting what would otherwise be the juicy fruit flavours that you only glimpse in the first taste. Wanted more.

Bottle . My first impression was this could be an interesting beer,That thought dissapeared as the pleasant slightly fruity flavour didn’t hang around for long. This promised but failed to deliver although saying that it isn’t a bad bitter just should have been better.

Aroma is floural with a decent amount of fruit off the malt some caramel having a wee say also. Taste is similar with some berry fruits coming through at times.
