A Brewing Legacy Woven into the Heart of Yorkshire
In the historic market town of Masham, nestled in the Yorkshire Dales, a brewery steeped in tradition continues to shape British brewing culture. Founded in 1827, this independent family-run company has evolved across five generations, crafting ales that echo the character of their surroundings and the care of those who brew them. From world wars to modern revival, its story is entwined with nearly two centuries of social and industrial change.
Famed for its Victorian tower brewery and celebrated beers like the iconic Old Peculier, Theakston’s influence stretches far beyond Yorkshire, with a reach into markets across the globe. Still rooted in its community, the brewery supports local arts, sport and environmental projects, drawing water from its own well and crafting casks on site using time-honoured techniques. Through innovation, heritage, and a commitment to sustainability, it remains a distinctive presence in Britain’s brewing landscape.
