Theakston's launches strongest ale with Morrisons nationwide

Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 21 Oct, 06:08 · Archive

Theakston's Brewery has launched Special Reserve, its strongest ale at 6.5% ABV, in Morrisons stores across the UK.

Theakston's Brewery, based in Masham in North Yorkshire, has launched Special Reserve, its strongest ale at 6.5% ABV, in Morrisons stores across the UK. The beer will also be available in Waitrose stores from November.

Brewed with fresh Fuggle hops, Special Reserve is a full-bodied, rounded ale with subtle fruity notes. The brewery recommends serving it with strong cheeses, including Blue Wensleydale.

Simon Theakston, chairman of T&R Theakston, said the company wanted to 'create something unique for our off-trade customers' and that 'modern consumers are returning to classic styles of British ale ones which match their higher ABV value with distinctive rich and smooth flavour profiles'. Special Reserve is the latest Theakston's product to secure new retailer listings following earlier placements for Old Peculier, Nowt Peculier and Salted Caramel Porter.
