XB
an ale from
Theakston
 XB
This drink, which we define as a 'Best Bitter' (a Bitter), has a strength of 4.5% ABV.

Strong, full-bodied ale brewed with a subtle, but superb, blend of magical ingredients.

Brewed with from two types of bitter, and three fruit, hop varieties - giving a most thirst quenching and satisfying ale.
XB was first brewed in 1982 to celebrate the purchase of the Carlisle Brewery by Theakstons a few years before. Brewed always and ever in Masham, XB was designed as a tribute to the classic ‘border’ style of beer, strong in gravity, low but complex hop.
