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.

Bottle. Beer Stop, Dronfield. Hazy, vibrant orange. Thin, dense, sticky, lasting, white head. Nose has a full on, NZ twang about it. Gooseberry and lychee, and all of that, with some floral and herbal hop leaf. Taste is tangy, citrusy, lemon rind bitter. Some prominent malt sweetness on the lips. Clean and lightly drying mouthfeel. Crisp carbonation. Finish moves from the fruit and flora, and gets sappy and resinous as it goes. Super easy drinking.

Bottle. Beer Central, Sheffield. Murky, amber colour. Thin, off white head. I can tell at a glance that the condition is way off. Nose has jammy malts. Some spruce and minty herb. Taste is sappy bitter, with some jammy sweetness. Heavy and sugary mouthfeel. Almost flat. Big bitterness to finish. What’s the point of brewing beer crammed full of expensive hops, and then having it bottled by someone who couldn’t bottle beer to save their arses? It’s like drinking a six month old US IPA that’s been sat in a shop window.
