Proudly Brewed in Yorkshire since 1999

The award-winning Salamander beers was founded in 1999. Dr Daniel Gent (a doctor of brewing and one of Salamander's founders) mission was to bring high quality independently brewed beer to the masses. To this day Salamander continues to surprise and delight its many customers.

And we haven’t lost our touch for beer either.

Brewing ceased in early 2019 and restarted in late Summer 2021.

Cask @ The Stubbing Wharf in Hebden Bridge. Golden with a smooth head. Its aroma has a small sweet hop base to it, although its flavour is light at best - however this is more than drinkable and a fine session ale.
