For those of you who tuned in to our YouTube Live Tasting Event last Friday 13th November, you’ll know this already as we dropped this exciting news then but… we’re opening a new bar! We are absolutely stoked to have secured a premises in Leeds, located on New Briggate which is perfectly situated between North Bar, Belgrave Music Hall and Brewdog in Leeds city centre.
As with our other venues: Brew York Beer Hall and Tap Room, and the Market Tap in Pocklington, you can expect the taps to be in great supply of Brew York beers. We will be pouring from 20 lines with a permanent selection of our core beers, current specials and various guest beers from our favourite breweries. Also expect our infamous Hoptails (beer cocktails), and a range of spirits on the drinks menu.
“We are absolutely thrilled to be opening a bar in Leeds, one of our favourite cities in the UK. It has such a rich and thriving beer scene, and as well as Leeds International Beer Festival being our favourite UK beer festival, we are so excited to be opening in a city that’s home to some of the best modern craft beer breweries in the UK. Despite the extreme challenges the whole hospitality industry has faced this year, we are pressing ahead with this opening that’s in line with our overall expansion plans as a business and we can’t wait to be joining the city’s craft beer community.” – Wayne
Larry (on the right-hand side of the photo below) will be running the show as our Bar Manager and we’re currently hiring for our bar team. If you’d like to apply to be part of our team, please email larry@brewyork.co.uk with your CV.
We are also absolutely delighted to be welcoming YUZU Street Food as our food partners to the new bar. They will be setting up home in the kitchen, serving up their delicious Asian-inspired street food – bao buns, dumplings, chicken wings and katsu curries – that pair exceptionally with our beers. To celebrate the upcoming opening, we got together with Yuzu to brew a beer! ’The Things Yuzu To Me’ is a clean, crisp and tart 5.6% IPA with the bold flavour of yuzu; a Japanese citrus fruit that adds a refreshing tang. This collaboration beer will be dropping on our web shop next Wednesday 25th November.
Just to give you even more exciting news, the opening of our Leeds venue is soon to be followed by another bar opening! Situated in a different UK city, we hope to give you some more details on this soon.. just keep an eye on our social media for updates.
We can’t wait to be able to welcome you to our new venue in Leeds, and back to our other venues, as soon as we can. In the mean time stay safe, and thank you for continuing to support us by purchasing our beers to enjoy at home from our web shop.
