Anton and Sarah Stark commenced brewing in Summer 2013. After brewing at Claro Road for a few years the brewery moved to the current site at Hookstone Chase in 2017. The brewery changed ownership in 2020 when it was bought by businessman and brewing enthusiast Joe Joyce.

Here at Harrogate Brewery we’re committed to traditional, classic brewing, creating some of the finest craft ales across the whole of Yorkshire. We strive to produce hearty northern ales to bring joy on the sunniest of days and to soothe your soul on the darkest of nights. As a Yorkshire family born and bred, we represent hard work, integrity and welcoming northern charm. The brewery came into our hands in a challenging time for all those in business. But with the amazing welcome received from the brewing community, along with the help and encouragement from the previous owner, we’ve already started to build on the original success.
