Old Legover
the name "Old Legover" is the nickname for the Brewery's popular cask ale, originally called Daleside Country Style.
There are thousands of beautiful country lanes in the Yorkshire Dales. Fell-runners have to put one leg over thousands of stiles, stone walls and streams in pursuing this traditional sport. One old runner won three races in one day in the 1920's: another won more than 100 races over thirty years. Over 300 fell-runners take part on Howarth Moor every New Year's Eve for a bottle of Yorkshire ale. We dedicate this fine Yorkshire beer to all Fell-runners. 'Old Legover' - This Genuine Yorkshire beer is hand brewed by the Witty family who have a tradition of brewing which dates back more than 600 years and who now make award winning distinctive English beers for your enjoyment.
Old Legover is brewed using the quality grain malts from a traditional Yorkshire maltster. Appreciate the flavours as you enjoy the beer and note the nutty overtones and the teasing late bittersweet sensations.
