1. Brew York
York, North Yorkshire, England
Located in York’s bustling city centre, just off Walmgate, Brew York is a showpiece 20Hl craft brewery alongside its tap room and beer hall. In early 2021 main production expanded to a twin 50Hl state of the art brewhouse on the outskirts of York. Featuring 40 taps the Beer Hall can boast the largest and widest selection of beers, lagers and ciders in York and its surrounding area. With its own purpose built kitchen we can deliver some of the best street food in the area alongside your beer. In addition to the awesome Beer Hall we have a smaller Tap Room located just next door within the brewery building itself. You can sit within touching distance of the fermenting tanks, even the brewers themselves! Come down and enjoy our beer whilst overlooking our latest brews fermenting away, or enjoy a fresh pint in our beer garden opposite the impressive Rowntree Wharf. We have 10 cask beers on rotation as well as 10 keg beer lines including cider and lager lines. A fantastic place to take in a brew and the view, as with the Beer Hall we are fully dog and family friendly. Open Tues - Sat 12pm - 11pm Sun 12pm - 9pm Food available until 2 hours before close.
2. Turning Point Brew Co.
Knaresborough, North Yorkshire, England
We are a small team of beer lovers with a clear mission: Brew our favourite beers, and have a good time. Our brewery recently relocated to Knaresborough, after two (and a bit) years at our original site in Kirkbymoorside. The brewery launched into orbit in 2017, with Aron & Cameron calling time on the day jobs and never looking back. Since then we've been busy brewing as many unique beers as possible, whilst modestly honing our craft, learning everything we can about this mysterious liquid, and trying our damnedest to cram as much fun into every minute of it as possible. We invite you into our little world filled with hops, good music, and space travel. Love, team TP.
3. Samuel Smith
Tadcaster, North Yorkshire, England
Samuel Smith brews at the Old Brewery, Tadcaster – it is Yorkshire’s oldest brewery. Traditional methods of brewing have been retained at The Old Brewery. The brewery still has its own cooper making and repairing all its oak casks; all Samuel Smith’s naturally conditioned draught beer is handpulled from oak casks. The original well at The Old Brewery, sunk in 1758, is still in use, with the brewing water being drawn from 85 feet underground. Samuel Smith’s ales and stouts (except draught Sovereign and Extra Stout) are fermented in ‘stone Yorkshire squares’ fermenting vessels made of solid slabs of slate which give the beers a fuller bodied taste, using the same strain of yeast since the nineteenth century. All Samuel Smith’s beers are brewed solely from authentic natural ingredients without any chemical additives, raw material adjuncts, artificial sweeteners, colourings, flavourings or preservatives. All Samuel Smith’s beers and ciders are suitable for a vegan diet (except cask conditioned Old Brewery Bitter and bottled Yorkshire Stingo).
