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.

From Jug at Old Dolphin, Derby Pours a golden brown with a small white head. A nice hoppy nose and hops are again to the fore in the mouth, along with oranges and .sultanas. Taste is sweet but not escessively so. Finish is bitter hops. A decent standard bitter – very drinkable.

Half-pint, cask ale at Wakefield Labour Club. Clear copper coloured body, an off-white head leaving crocheted lacing on the glass. Moderate smell of bread and caramel malts. The flavour character has got moments of bread and biscuit. Bittersweet endnotes. Decent Brit bitter. (Wakefield pub crawl wit ManVsBeer 04.07.2019).
