Description
Founded as ‘Eastwood and Sanders Fine Ales’ in 2002, after the amalgamation of The West Yorkshire Brewery and The Barge and Barrel Brewing Company, we renamed as Elland Brewery in 2006 and have been trading under that banner ever since.

We are proud to be a proper, independent, traditional micro-brewery. We’re a small team (currently ten and a half people!) and we’re involved in every aspect of running a busy brewery, we all get our hands dirty helping out in racking, delivering, filling the vans, cleaning, loading the spent grain for our local farmer Dickie to feed his cattle…you’d be surprised at what a normal day involves!

7th July 2018, The Castle Hotel, Bishops Castle; cask half-pint. Mahogany body, clean and clear, off-white blanket of foam on top. Malty front to the nose and taste, backed up with some serious hop fruitiness and piney bitterness. Liked it.

Hand-pulled half (cask) on 2nd May 2018, at The Station Hotel, Oakengates, Shropshire. Golden/amber body, white crown. An easy drinking brew with a slight orange juice aroma and taste, subtle rather than 'in your face' though.
