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.

Hand-pulled half-pint in my local ’Spoons’: 6th Nov 13. Poured a golden colour with a white head that produced some good lacing as the beer level fell in the glass. Mild smell: some floral hops notes and pale malts maybe, but nothing strong. The taste is also fairly subtle: again floral hops, more fruity in the mouth though and the malts gave a slightly sweet flavour to the blend. OK and an ideal session ale, not going to upset anyone: it isn’t going to excite your taste buds either.

500ml Bottle: BBD end of Jan 14. Poured into a UK pint sleeve during preparing a Sunday lunch in my hot kitchen: if found ’Sleck Dust’ an idea thirst quencher in every sense. Light amber/golden body with an off-white head that started thin and fell away a bit too swiftly for my liking. Mild citrus notes in a fruity and floral hop nose. Nicely balanced taste: hop bitterness with a citrus bent blend well with the semi-sweet malts to give a pleasant refreshing easy drinking session ale. My first beer from these guys: I’ve got two more different bottles to try, looking forward to them.

Cask at Pipe and Glass, South Dalton. Was looking forward to this, as other beer from this brewery I’ve usually liked a lot. But this was a bit heavy going. Like drinking a dry hunk of unbuttered granary bread. And that’s not easy.
