John Smiths Extra Smooth Can Beer, 24 x 440 ml

Product Information

It was reported in The Times that landlords were generally indifferent to the change, as the taste profiles of John Smith's bitter and Barnsley bitter were similar. In 2010 Heineken discontinued production of cask conditioned John Smith's Magnet, although it remains available in kegs. The Dee campaign was widely credited with helping John Smith's rise from sixteenth to fourth highest selling beer in the UK as sales increased by 65 per cent, and the brand overtook Tetley's as the highest selling ale brand in the world by 1995.

John Smith's is the second biggest brand in the HEINEKEN UK beer portfolio, selling more than 228 million pints in the UK a year. After Rollings died in 1986 the campaign was continued with Arkwright's successor, Barraclough, until 1991.To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average.

The prosperity of the 1850s and 1860s, together with the arrival of the railways, realised greater opportunities for brewers, and John Smith employed eight men in his brewing and malting enterprise by 1861. From 1979 to 1986 Gordon Rollings played the dour Yorkshireman Arkwright in a campaign that was only used in the South.John Smith's became well known for a series of highly successful "No Nonsense"-themed television advertising campaigns, featuring the dour Yorkshireman character "Arkwright" during the 1970s and 1980s (shown only in the South of England), followed by the comedians Jack Dee during the 1990s and Peter Kay since 2002. Despite the success of the Kay campaign, the perceived " laddishness" of the advertisements were criticised by rival brewer Interbrew as hindering sales of beer among women.

John Smith's is the number one most loved ale in the UK, providing a good honest pint for good honest blokes. Horses had delivered beer to all the areas surrounding the brewery, as far afield as Pateley Bridge. The driver will input your year of birth into their device and may then require an ID check to complete the age verification process. If you go to a club and all they've got is John Smith's, Strongbow, Fosters and Guinness then you can be sure the quality will be poor and the pumps wouldn't have been cleaned for ages. Stainless steel Yorkshire Squares were in use by at least 1953, but were removed in the 1980s, and the brewery now uses conical tanks.

By combining Courage's strength in the South of England, and John Smith's in the North, a national brewing company was created. Jane Hartley died in 1852, and John Smith acquired the business, enlisting his brother William to assist.The majority of John Smith's sales are of the nitrogenated Extra Smooth product, although a cask conditioned variant is available nationally.
