A stout defence
Two of the North's most celebrated
breweries have collaborated to
launch a 4.4% stout, Northern Rising.
The culmination of more than a year's
worth of work between the two
award-winning breweries, Northern
Rising is available in cask and keg
within Northern Monk's and Timothy
Taylor's own venues, and in pubs
across the UK, plus 440ml nitro stout
cans in supermarkets and online.
The team at Timothy Taylor's
and Northern Monk have used
roast barley and crystal malt in the
brew, so expect a malt-forward and
satisfying chocolate flavour. Golden
Promise malt is also in the mix, a
staple of Timothy Taylor's cask ales,
which gives the beer that trademark
full body and satisfying mouthfeel.
Russell Bisset, Co-Founder and
Managing Director at Northern
Monk, said, "We've been huge fans of
Timothy Taylor's for many years and
a collaboration with them has always
been on our bucket list. We settled
on a beer style that's 300 years
old, started in London and made
famous in Dublin. We developed
different concepts on what we
could do together and landed on a
stout, which we saw as an exciting
challenge. Stouts are the fastest
growing beer style in the UK, and
we're stoked for people to try our
take on a classic."
Andy Leman, Timothy Taylor's
Head Brewer, added, "Northern
Monk is a fellow Yorkshire brewery
that we've been proud to call a
friend for many years, and one that
has produced some of the most
exciting craft beers in the country.
It's been fantastic to blend their
craft beer credentials with our real
ale expertise to produce Northern
Rising, a truly delicious stout."
