The brewery is based in Skipton and recently first launched at The Cross Keys pub in Halifax.

Skipton Brewing Company shared their arrival saying:

"We’ve been busy behind the scenes getting the kit running, fine-tuning recipes, and putting the graft in.

"Cask-led beers, brewed properly, right here in Yorkshire!"

Skipton Boat House revealed they would be stocking the brewery's beer in their pub next week:
