Leeds Brewery

The company uses a 20 barrel brewing plant located in a trading estate on the outskirts of the city; it is capable of delivering 150,000 imperial pints (85,000 L) of beer a week, and produces five regular brands, including their flagship Leeds Pale Ale at 3.8%, a 4.3% best bitter Leeds Best and the award winning mild ale Midnight Bell.

Leeds Brewery was established in June 2007[1] by university friends Michael Brothwell (a former BBC Radio York presenter) and Sam Moss[2] and has since been producing a range of permanent and seasonal cask ales.

The beer was available in local pubs, with 10p from every pint sold going towards the Leeds United transfer fund.

In July 2016, the estate of seven pubs (excluding PIN which closed and The Garden Gate) was sold to Camerons Brewery.
