Description
In 2020 the Bartlett family set out to create a one off destination space on the Northumberland coast combining the finest food, beer and entertainment possible. Enter, The Delaval Arms.

With the purchase of the historic pub the guys took on a huge renovation during lock down (s), which included the purchase of a 2.5bbl (400L) micro brewery.

We brew BEER. We love to drink all style and we brew styles we enjoy. There is a beer out there for everyone. We aim to provide a range of beers that will please even the most stubborn beer sceptic by experimenting with season ingredients, the newest hops and malt, and using both modern and traditional techniques.
