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.

Cask. Closed Shop, Sheffield. As Stancill India. Quid a half! Ruby tinged, chestnut brown. Thick, nitro like, cream coloured head. Gotta love a sparkler. Nose has spicy, nutty malts. Some leafy hop. Hint of dark fruit. Taste has some vine fruit sweetness. Earthy, leafy bitterness. Light body with a creamy mouthfeel. More leafy bitterness to finish.

Can. Turner’s, Sheffield. Light gold. Soft haze. Thick, rocky, foamy, lasting, white head. Nose has pale malts. Lemon rind. Pithy grapefruit. Taste is dry and pithy bitter. Mouthfeel is oily, with high carbonation. Long bitter finish. It’s punchy bitter, certainly, but it’s not too drinkable. Lacks some balance.

Cask pint at The Junction, Castleford. ABV is 4.0%. Pale golden colour, white head. Moderate citrussy aroma. Citrussy hops in the flavour too, distinct bitterness, but the mouthfeel is too thin.

On cask at the Junction in Castleford - Clear gold body little foam head. Nose is lots of tropical citrus and herbs. Taste is pure fruit lots of bitterness but at the same time sweet undertones. Refreshing

Cask at CPK - Pimlico, London. Pours clear, dark brown with a small, foamy tan head. The nose holds moderate roast, dry cocoa, earth, dried berries. Light sweet flavour with further roasty notes, some burnt malts, old carpet, damp earth. Light to medium bodied with fine carbonation; OK condition. Finishes with notes of scorched earth, lightly tangy dark berries, burnt toast, vague bittersweet chocolate. So so.
