Product Information

In 1839, his son Frances joined the business and became a partner. They then renamed the company ‘Joshua Tetley & Son’. Since 2000, Tetley has been a wholly owned subsidiary of Tata Consumer Products (formerly Tata Global Beverages), making it the second largest manufacturer of teas in the world, after Unilever. [2] [3] History [ edit ] Tetley tea canister from Canada Tetley's advertising suffered during the 1980s when its television advertisements focussed too heavily on a folksy, old fashioned idea of Yorkshire life. [32] From 1999 – 2006 Tetley used "Smoothly Does It" as its slogan. [33] In 2006 the slogan became 'Don't Do Things By Halves'. [34] Following a break for a number of years from television advertising, Tetley returned to the screens in October 2010 as a sponsor of evening programming on ITV4. [35]

By 1817, Joshua and his family decided to move to Park Square. It was here that they had two further children, both of which were daughters. How Tetley’s Beer became what is is today The second half of these public houses would see a decline in the sale of the brand. This resulted in Tetley’s merging with Carlsberg UK in 1998.In 1993 Allied Lyons sold a 50 per cent stake in the company to Carlsberg. The brewery opened a museum on 19 March 1994. [13] The attraction proved popular; however, redevelopment of the land surrounding the brewery led to the attraction's closure on 7 April 2000. The building is now bars and restaurants. [14] By 1996, sales of Tetley Bitter were overtaken by sales of John Smith's, and the product has retained the number two ale position ever since. [15] This is largely attributed to Tetley's ineffective marketing campaigns. [12] In 1998 Tetley's was fully taken over by Carlsberg. In 2004 Tetley was dropped from the Carlsberg-Tetley name. [16] The company is now called Carlsberg UK Limited and is a part of Carlsberg AS group. In 2006, Tetley's sold 185million pints of beer in pubs. In the same year, the brewery's dray horses, which had made beer deliveries to pubs around Leeds, were retired. [16] Bay Horse Inn, Harcourt Street, Dudley Hill, Bradford (June 1923, ex- Leeds & Wakefield Breweries Ltd.) Anyone who pays a fee of two guineas could sell between 4am and 10pm. It meant that businesses didn’t need permission from the Justices. The 20th Century saw mixed fortunes for both Tetley’s and brewing as a whole. Two world wars meant that multiple parliamentary acts restricted what could be sold in pubs and when they could open. It claimed the beer market faced the "perfect storm of falling consumption, increasing costs and rising tax".

Off- licence, 13 Pitt Street, Low Valley, Darfield (Sept. 1930, ex- Bentley’s Yorkshire Breweries Ltd.) Another great boon was the English Temperance Society which was formed in nearby Bradford in the same year. It was declared that beer was a temperate alternative to spirits. The highest selling Tetley product is Smoothflow, a nitrogenated 3.6% ABV ale served at 8°C (46°F). It is available in kegs and cans with a widget. It is sold overseas as Tetley's English Ale. [24] The same beer, but not nitrogenated and without the widget in the can, is sold as Tetley's Original. [25] In the late 1980s / early 1990s as part of the UK 'heritage boom' Tetley's developed Brewery Wharf as an 'interactive visitor centre' along the lines of the contemporary developments at Granada Studios Manchester. Visitors were greeted and guided by historic characters illustrating the story of the brewery. This development took place alongside the first redevelopments of the river and canal zones of Leeds. The final barrel of Tetley’s brewing in Leeds was on the 24th of May 2011. The city decided to keep its distribution centre based nearby in Tingley.

Sadly not, Tetley’s is made with malted barley which is a source of gluten. Some brewers try to claim that the levels of gluten in their beer are so low that the beer can be considered virtually gluten-free. That is not the case here. If you are a coeliac or are gluten-intolerant then Tetley’s is not the beer for you! Is Tetley’s Vegan? The Leeds Brewery was closed in 2011, and demolished in 2012, with production contracted out by Carlsberg to breweries in Wolverhampton, Tadcaster and Hartlepool. Tetley still sponsors Leeds Rhinos Rugby League club.
