Ilkley Brewery: Award-winning Leeds business announces opening of first ever taproom with 20 beer taps
A multi-award winning brewery in Ilkley is set to open its first taproom.
Ilkley Brewery has announced it is opening a taproom in the Grove Promenade, taking over the former family-owned restaurant Joel’s Kitchen and Bar.
The announcement was made on the brewery’s official social media channels with owner Luke Raven sharing an image of the venue’s exterior with new signs that say “coming soon”.
The Instagram post also revealed the taproom is named the Ilkley Tap and said the new venue will feature 20 beer taps with all of the business’ best sellers and locally-sourced food.
The new opening comes after the brewery, which has a base in Ashland’s Road, marks its 15th birthday this year. In the last 15 years, the brewery has brewed 17.4 million pints and 365 different beers.
Ilkley Brewery offers a range of canned, casks and draft beer. It is best known for its Mary Jane session pale ale, which the brewery won a national award for in 2009.
