Many beer drinkers across our county and beyond may wish to raise a glass to the skills of people who have mastered the art of barrel-making. Now independent brewery T&R Theakston is partnering with its journeyman cooper Euan Findlay to launch Findlay’s Cooperage, continuing its proud support of the heritage of brewery coopering.
'By partnering with the brewery, I’m able to fulfil this ambition whilst continuing a great relationship with the place where my career began. I’m really excited about the future of this partnership and grateful to the Theakston team for their ongoing support.” Simon Theakston, chairman of T&R Theakston, said: “While the bulk of beer sales have moved over time into metal casks, Theakston’s has always maintained a supply of cask beer in wood and an on-site cooperage to support it.
