Description
Wold Top Brewery was founded in 2003 by arable farmers Tom and Gill Mellor. Based high on the Yorkshire Wolds where the hills roll down to the North Sea, ours is a family business that is run by the third and fourth generation Mellors and we pride ourselves on brewing superior quality beer from home grown barley and water that is gently filtered by the chalk of the Yorkshire Wolds and drawn from the farm's own borehole.

Cask at GBBF08. Weak fruity aroma. Hazy golden colour. Small white head. Fruity flavour, slightly sweet. A little grassy hops. Was this gluten free? Does not taste it. OK hoppy but still slightly boring. By far the best gluten free beer I have had.
