It's what the Blacksheep Brewery in Masham uses, so they must o.k. :-)
I do recommend a conducted tour of the brewery, if you are in the
area.

I know it well, but I can't remember the owner's name. Before he took the
Masham brewery over, wasn't he responsible for inventing the original
'Theakstone's Old Peculiar'? Now that WAS a beer, and a half!


Paul Theakston, who left the family brewery and Old Peculier (note "e" not
"a") when it was
acquired by Scottish and Newcastle breweries. Then set up Black Sheep
Brewery (and ale)
See http://www/blacksheepbrewery.com/history/history1.cfm if you're
interested.
