Taylors Solicitors creates special brew for beer festival

Taylors Solicitors will be raising a glass to Blackburn Youth Zone this bank holiday weekend, as the firm has created their own beer for Blackburn Beer Festival.

The annual festival is in aid of the town centre youth club facility; Taylor’s chosen charity. This is the second time the firm has produced a special ale for the festival.

The ale, which is initially sweet with full malty, biscuit and caramel flavours, is balanced by an earthy well-rounded bitterness with hints of citrus fruit, has been specially crafted by the experts at Thwaites.

Festival-goers will be able to make their own minds up about the solicitors’ brewing skills when the 4.8 per cent ale makes its debut at the Blackburn Beer Festival, but Tony is delighted to say that the ale gets the expert’s seal of approval.

“They wanted to create a traditional English bitter and what they have brewed is a very tasty, full-flavoured beer, under the expert guidance of our talented brewers. I think it will be very popular when it goes on sale in Thwaites' outlets next month.”

There will also be live music each evening and rugby matches held over Saturday and Sunday.

A spokesperson for the beer festival said: “We will continue to support the work Blackburn Youth Zone does for the young people of this community and are very proud to announce that they remain our charity of choice for 2016. We would like to thank everyone who has been involved in Blackburn Beer Festival over the years for making it such a resounding success.”
