Cook Lane IPA

Why our yeast needs to be locked up.

You might well wonder why we lock away our yeast. Until you learn how important it is to the flavour of our beer. We use our own unique strain called, appropriately, Taylor’s Taste. The properties of this particular yeast are vital to giving Landlord its deep and complex yet crisp and clean flavour. It’s so valuable to us that every year two samples of Taylor’s Taste are carefully transported to separate secret locations and stored carefully under lock and key, just in case the precious yeast here at the brewery is ever compromised or damaged. It might seem over cautious, but it’s all for that taste of Taylor’s.
