About
Inspired by the brewing scene on the West Coast of America Julia Austin founded Tyne Bank Brewery in 2011. Building on the Norths historic love of beer, our craft ales soon became so popular we outgrew our first home. So in 2016 we invested and crowdfunded, to relocate to our new home, an industrial-style, 13,000 sq ft warehouse with tap room and events space on the edge of Ouseburn, home to Newcastle’s vibrant creative community just a short stroll from the city centre. Here drinkers can enjoy a pint whilst watching the brewhouse in action.

7/5/2018. Can from CentrAle, Newcastle. Pours pale gold with a small just off-white head. Aroma of light sweet rhubarb, custard, lactose, vanilla and custard cream biscuit. Quite heavy sweetness, minimal bitterness, no discernible rhubarb sour. Moderate body, oily texture, average carbonation. Sweet finish. Would have preferred the natural rhubarb tartness to have had a bit more dominance.
