Description
In the wide-skied arable lands of Holderness, down a tree-lined lane, lies Great Newsome Brewery. Here you will find beers for all seasons and all-year drinking.
We don’t try to reinvent the wheel. We keep it simple, using superb natural ingredients to make beer that you can sit back and enjoy, without even thinking about it. Which in our opinion is the sign of a very good pint indeed. It’s traditional craft beer with a modern twist.
Growing our own malting barley gave us a good start and we have since developed special strains of yeast as well as experimenting with homegrown hops, although they are difficult this far north.
Visiting our shop, you’ll be sure of a tail wagging welcome from our English Springer Spaniels, descendants of the late Jem, our mascot who is fondly remembered on bottle labels and draft beer bar tags.

Gravity poured half-pint at ’The 8 Sail Brewery’ on 24th May 2014. Comes a light amber, clear and bright with a fine white crown. Crisp and sharp hoppy front and finish. Mild citrus feel to this well hopped brew that leads to a dry finish and aftertaste.

Bottle. Light orange in colour, not much of a head. It does have lager character but with a small fruit hopped nose. It’s taste is more malty but there’s some fruit evident in here too.

Cask at The York Tap. Pours clear copper, little to no head. No carbonation. Aromas of biscuit, bread. Taste is sweet, very light herbal tickle at the end. Pretty boring brown booze.
