Samuel Smith Yorkshire Stingo is the most extraordinary and exclusive beer from the Old Brewery in Tadcaster, founded in 1758. It is a robust English Strong Ale with 8% ABV, whose name derives from 18th-century English slang for strong beer, and it has delighted beer lovers worldwide as the brewery's first new creation in decades. The Yorkshire Stingo matures for at least one year in centuries-old oak casks in the brewery's underground cellars, where the barrels, through years of use, develop increasing character and impart flavors of fruit, raisins, molasses toffee, Christmas pudding, and fine oak notes to the beer before it naturally conditions in the bottle. Rich, deep flavors of toffee, raisins, dried fruits, and caramel rise and fall in waves, leaving soft oak notes behind, complemented by elegant conditioning and a satisfying fruitiness from bottle fermentation. Samuel Smith Yorkshire Stingo is the ultimate choice for discerning beer connoisseurs and collectors seeking a masterfully crafted, aromatically profound, and historically significant English Strong Ale that delights equally as a refined digestif, a companion to aged hard cheeses, Stilton, and dark desserts, or as a collector's item for special occasions.
