Description
Bridgehouse Brewery is a 15bl brewery that is located in our purpose built brewhouse in the grounds of our flagship pub The Airedale Heifer at Sandbeds Keighley .

in March 2010 Bridgehouse Brewery purchased the kit of the closed Ryburn Brewery and commenced brewing in Keighley and very soon moved up the Worth valley to Oxenhope. In May 2014, Bridgehouse and Old Bear merged and the brewery moved to the Old Bear site in Aireworth Road. A new brewhouse was then built behind the Airedale Heifer pub at Sandbeds, between Keighley and Bingley, and the brewing is now done there. To this day Bridgehouse Brewery still use open top fermenters and traditional brewing menthods.

Cask @ Barum Top Inn, Halifax. Extremely dark with a creamy off-white head. Has a fine roasted aroma including coffees but it’s much less stated in its taste and fairly thin. Cask again @ Shoulder Of Mutton, Hebden Bridge, and much smoother and fine tasting for this. Much better kept in the latter than the former.
