The home of Tetley's : brewery brochure : Joshua Tetley & Son Ltd. : Leeds : West Yorkshire : nd [c.1955] : cover

            A rather fine brochure detailing the highlights of a tour around Tetley's Brewery that stood just to the south of Leeds city centre in Hunslet and was in use until closure in 2011. The company's origins dated back to 1823 and over the coming decades the brewery was expanded to meet the demands of trade, bottling and of the growing number of tied, or owned, public houses. The fine art deco head office buildings seen in this brochure dated from 1931.

Not dated the brochure does already show Duncan Gilmour of Sheffield as a subsidiary and this agreed acquisition had taken place in 1954. It does not show the large scale merger with the Leeds based Melbourne Brewery of 1960. Later that year Tetley's merged with Walker's of Warrington and in the following year they became a founder member of Allied Brewers.

The brochure shows the various stages of the brewing process at the Leeds Brewery. It was printed locally by the noted colour printer and games manufacturers of John Waddington. Tetley's, now  as a brand of Carlsburg, is still around today but contract brewed.
