ABOUT SAMUEL SMITH
The Old Brewery at Tadcaster was established in 1758.
It is Yorkshire’s oldest brewery.

The original well at The Old Brewery, sunk in 1758, is still in use, with the brewing water being drawn from 85 feet underground.

The brewery still has its own cooper making and repairing all its oak casks. All Samuel Smith’s naturally conditioned draught beer is served from the wood.

The yeast used to ferment Samuel Smith’s ales has been of the same strain since the nineteenth century.

Samuel Smith’s ales and stouts (except draught Sovereign and Extra Stout) are fermented in ‘stone Yorkshire squares’~ fermenting vessels made of solid slabs of slate ~ which give the beers a fuller bodied taste.

Samuel Smith’s Shire horses are used to make local deliveries five days a week.

The little town of Tadcaster is home to three breweries. Samuel Smith’s is a small brewery producing less than 5% of the beer brewed in the town.

 The brewery operates in the region of 200 pubs. Many are small pubs situated in the post-industrial urban areas of the north of England. The pubs only stock Samuel Smith’s products.
