Our Brewers

One of the most important ingredients in every Taylor’s beer is our people – especially our highly trained brewers: Emma, Andrew, Nick, and Ewan.

They oversee every stage of brewing by hand, rather than relying on computers, and every brew begins with one of them mashing in each morning. Using their senses of taste and smell, they test all ingredients and sample each brew multiple times to ensure quality and consistency.

Their craft and constant fine-tuning are what keep every pint worthy of the Timothy Taylor’s name.

Behind every cask, keg, and bottle is a hard-working team committed to doing things the right way. From logistics, sales, and marketing to finance, operations, admin, engineering, and brewing, each person brings specialist skills and a shared pride in the beer we produce.

It’s this teamwork – many talents working with one purpose – that helps us remain a successful, independent, family-owned brewery. Every department and every individual plays a part in making our beer the best it can be.

Our Pub Estate

At the heart of Timothy Taylor’s is the British pub, and our pub estate is brought to life by the dedicated publicans who run them day in, day out. These are passionate, hardworking individuals who pour their energy into creating welcoming, well-kept pubs that sit at the centre of their local communities.

From maintaining immaculate cellars to serving every pint in perfect condition, our publicans take immense pride in their craft. They support local events, foster a sense of belonging, and work tirelessly behind the scenes to ensure that every visit is one worth repeating. Their commitment to quality, community, and hospitality is fundamental to the enjoyment of Timothy Taylor’s beer – and to the enduring role of the pub in British life.
