Tetley's moving from Leeds

Carlsberg have announced that from next year production of Tetleys will move from Leeds to Marston's in Wolverhampton for the cask beer, and their own plant a Tadcaster for the smoothflow.

No news yet on Imperial or Dark Mild, it would be said if these were to disappear as a result of this change.

I haven't thought much of Tetley's for many years, I may have been unlucky as to where I tried it or even my tastes changed but it wasn't a patch on the stuff I drank as a youngster 30-40 years ago, we used to walk past pubs which didn't have the huntsman sign outside, it was that good.

As to smoothflow and its ilk, disgusting stuff, work of the devil invented for people with dead taste buds.

I don't get round real pubs much these days but even when I did Imperial wasn't a brew found in abundance round Huddersfield, the only place I can remember drinking it was a pub just outside Darlington station while waiting for a train to Redcar to visit a mate, a very nice brew as I remember, was it a zoned brew?

It was for many years brewed for the North East but did seem to creep into pubs further South from time to ti,me.

They brewed one called Fallstaff too which was supposed to resemble Ramsden's Light Mild. Only available round Halifax. Not sure whether that was just keg though never seen it on a handpump.

Given their influence on what happened to Ansells and particularly the mild

- no sympathy.
