Stancill Brewery
Microbrewery
in Sheffield,
South Yorkshire,
England 🏴
Associated with 2 Venues
Established in 2014
Motivated by a desire to ensure that the production of Oakwell’s famous Barnsley Bitter could continue, Barnsley boys Tom & Adam rescued the brewing equipment from Oakwell and set about recreating the much loved beer.
A site in Sheffield was selected as the home of the new brewery. Known as the ‘Brewing Capital of England’, the city’s proximity to the Peak District gives access to the purest water - perfect for brewing. The 22.5 barrel kit was carefully transported to the new location and painstakingly reassembled under the direction of Chief Engineer, Tim.
Stancill Brewery was ready to brew.
Production commenced in January 2014 with a revival of the historic Barnsley Bitter, true to the original recipe. Led by Head Brewer Dean, our brewery team work hard to ensure that the legacy continues to this day.

Handpull cask at the West Riding Refreshment Rooms, Dewsbury. Light brown, clear with a thickbeige head and lots of lacing. Big astringent aroma with lots of oak character, and some sweet malt with chocolate and toffee. Taste is sweet with a vinous balance, more oaky notes and some hoppy bitterness in the slightly soured finish. Light body with minimal carbonation. A wonderful trad brown.

Near black with a frothy off-white/beige head and a roasted malt aroma, with a hint of liquorice. Creamy smooth, medium bodied, with roasted malt to the fore, some dark fruit character and a hint of spice, all with a touch of dry bitterness
