North Yorkshire brewing heritage is anchored by Masham, where Theakston has been brewing since 1827 (now in its sixth generation, home of Old Peculier) and Black Sheep was founded in 1992 by Paul Theakston after he left the family business. Roosters in Harrogate pioneered American hops in UK brewing. Brass Castle in Malton is renowned for vegan and gluten-free beers. Helmsley Brewing Co operates in the North York Moors. Whitby Brewery crafts ales in the shadow of the abbey.
The distillery scene is equally strong. York Gin has won multiple gold medals at world-class competitions. Slingsby in Harrogate uses spring water and local botanicals. Rare Bird in Malton has a gin school. Whitby Gin forages heather from the moorland. Masons Yorkshire Tea gin is a national success story.
