NEW FERMENTERS ARRIVE!

The brewery has more than doubled production to keep up with demand. It has been enjoying bumper sales since August last year when it was named Champion Beer of Britain 2009 for Ruby Mild. Craig Lee says `The new fermenters allow more beer to be produced every week. It is pleasing to see Ruby Mild doing so well but also interesting and exciting that our other beers are also enjoying bumper sales. Much of this is down to a fantastic increase in regular local trade around the York and Harrogate areas."

Rudgate Brewery in Tockwith has donated a keg of its award-winning Ruby Mild as a prize for the overall Pub of the Year

There are seven pubs in all, including the best overall pub title, which Rudgate is sponsoring. Craig Lee, owner, said: " It will be nice for both of us. We pride ourselves on the gong we have and the pub deserving of the champion pub award is also deserving of the champion beer."
