C F TETLEY : PALE ALE 1872

 How Do All , 

Here`s a Pale Ale from the Brewing Journal of Charles Francis Tetley 1870 - 1872 , deposited with the ever helpfull team at West Yorkshire Archives in Morley as part of the Joshua Tetley & Sons Archives , Catalogue No : ACC 1890 / Box 54 .
The book covers brewings of :both Pale and X Ale , Porter , Stout and X X ; X X & X X X Stock Ales .

The range of beers as entered in this source don`t tally with the corresponding Tetley beers of the same period ; References to the use of London brewer`s yeasts such as Barclay - Perkins as well as the disparity between the original and attenuation gravities of the beers in question , lead me to the conclusion that this Brewing Journal is a ` Pupil Brewer`s ` as opposed to a statutory record of production and NOT a record of brewing at Leeds .
