About
Beers are a beautiful thing and we’re very proud of ours here at Empire Brewing. An established micro-brewery situated amongst the rolling Yorkshire hills of Slaithwaite, we’ve been producing fine artisan ales for over a decade.

From a humble garage-based micro-brewery to the slick operation you see today at our boiler house by the canal, our beers – and the way we do things – have come a long way. But our values remain exactly the same: to produce creative and dynamic artisan brewing you’ll love.

Cask @ Vernon Arms, Liverpool. Golden with a small head. Nice session ale, not too stated in either malts or hops, but both are here with a very light sweetness running throughout its character. Bitter malts in nose, a medium bitterness at best.
