Description
We’re a friendly bunch of Yorkshire folk with a passion for all things ale. Since 2015, we’ve been driven by a passion for innovating ales, while sticking to the traditional methods and high quality that you know and love.
The North Riding Brewery is based in the village of Snainton, just outside the seaside town of Scarborough, Yorkshire. Every day we’re blessed with chocolate box views of God’s own county and refreshing sea air. You could say there’s a little taste of Yorkshire in every brew.
Our production process is simple. We currently brew three times a week in our microbrewery, focusing on hop-forward modern ales with the finest ingredients.
Our mission is to delight your taste buds with a little love from Yorkshire. We’ll drink to that.
First brewed during March 2015 using a 10BBL plant. Initially it was based at the Betton Business Park, East Ayton, Scarborough. It is a sister brewery to North Riding Brewpub. In Summer 2019 the brewery relocated to their current location.
The majority of the output now comes from East Ayton but the brewpub also continues to operate, primarily for small batch beers sold at the pub, test brews and the occasional festival special.

Hand-pulled half-pint at The Pheasant, Wellington Shropshire on 30th October 2021. Clean and clear golden body, snow white crown on top. The aroma and taste are citrussy with lime like esters and flavours to the fore. Some malt action kicking in for some balance.

Bottle. Bier Huis, Ossett. Cap wasn’t crimped properly. Probably the cause of so many shit bottled beers from this brewer. Pours with a huge head, with a faint whiff of vinegar. So here we go again. And again. Honestly can’t be arsed. Buy a new bottling line!!!!
