ABOUT US
MODERN ALES – TRADITIONALLY BREWED
What Makes Our Beer Great
Our Brewery
We’re a friendly bunch of Yorkshire folk with a passion for all things ale. Since 2015, we’ve been driven by a passion for innovating ales, while sticking to the traditional methods and high quality that you know and love.
The North Riding Brewery is based in the village of Snainton, just outside the seaside town of Scarborough, Yorkshire. Every day we’re blessed with chocolate box views of God’s own county and refreshing sea air. You could say there’s a little taste of Yorkshire in every brew.
Our production process is simple. We currently brew three times a week in our microbrewery, focusing on hop-forward modern ales with the finest ingredients.
Our mission is to delight your taste buds with a little love from Yorkshire. We’ll drink to that.

Meet The People Behind The Beer
Our Team
The North Riding Brewery team may be small, but it’s effective. Founders Stuart Neilson and Adrian Tonge brewed up the idea when they met over their shared love of racing. With Stuart’s brewing experience, paired with Adrian’s bookmaking business acumen, the North Riding Brewery was born.
Our team has grown since 2015, today, we’re proud to have brewery assistants Paula Hornby and Dave Cunningham on board. Last but by no means least, we have Mila, our security assistant and resident French bulldog. She whips us into shape!
Stuart Neilson
Head Brewer and Joint Owner
Stuart is the brains behind all things beer at North Riding Brewery. He offers a decade’s experience in brewing and he’s very partial to an Enigma Pale Ale. When he’s not sampling beer, you can find him sipping on an Espresso Martini.
Adrian Tonge
Joint Owner
Adrian founded the North Riding Brewery with co-owner Stuart Neilson back in 2015. He’s a keen fan of racing and bookmaking, and loves nothing more than backing a winner on a Saturday afternoon. With his refined palate, he’s very partial to a Tiramisu Porter.

Mila
Head of Security
Little Mila is our resident French bulldog. She may be small, but she’s feisty. She loves all North Riding Brewery beers, taking long walks around Snainton village, and chewing on our shoelaces. We honestly couldn’t think of anyone better to employ in a security role!
