HAPPY PILGRIM RELEASE DAY, PALS! We've got casks, kegs and cans filled and ready to go and our shop has gone pumpkin crazy (we've got Pilgrim vodka and Pilgrim t-shirts too)! Thank you for all your pre-orders, your beer will be on the way very soon 🎃

We love learning more about the city we call home, and this local magazine is a wonderful way to do so! Thoroughly recommend reading and subscribing for less than the cost of a pint per month 🍻

Today sees a home collaboration with our good pal Stu from North Riding Brewery!

Abbeydale, Sheffield’s longest established brewery, are celebrating this week, having been announced on the shortlists for three prestigious national awards beertoday.co.uk/2025/09/18/a... #beer #beernews #beerawards @abbeydalebeers.bsky.social

Today marks the start of Cask Ale Week! We've rustled up a Yorkshire Bitter for the occasion, and we hope you join us in raising a glass to our national drink - we'd love to hear about your favourite places to enjoy a pint. Head here to find out more: abbeydalebrewery.co.uk/cask-ale-week/

This week's new cask only special is the quirky and curious Basilisk! A 4.3% pale ale with the deliciously citrussy trio of Vic Secret, Amarillo and Simcoe, finishing with a balanced bitterness.

Monday good news! We're THRILLED to announce we've been named as finalists in the Best Drinks Producer category of the prestigious BBC Food & Farming Awards 2025! What a huge honour! Congratulations to all who have made the shortlist - read more here: www.abbeydalebrewery.co.uk/bbc-food-far...

Happy Sunday - hope you're having a relaxing one! Can anyone beat this as a backdrop befitting of our Serenity?! (Plus a little "the art" vs "the artist" behind the scenes snap!)

Celebrating Team Abbeydale... congratulations to Denny and Edd, who have both worked here for 5 years this week! Both joined us at a tumultuous time for our industry and have proven cool, calm and collected ever since, making them invaluable to our team and our customers alike. Cheers chaps!

This week's cask only release is a new addition to our exquisite Natural Print series. Japanese Cedar is a citrussy sensation of a pale ale, elegantly hopped with Mosaic and Amarillo for zesty notes of orange and grapefruit and a pithy bitter finish.

We're used to finding new ways to describe beers as 'citrussy’, ‘fruity’ and ‘tropical’, but trying to skirt around the words ‘weed’ or ‘skunky’ is definitely a new one to us. Hello, CULTIVATOR! We've never made a beer like it - you're gonna need a blog post... www.abbeydalebrewery.co.uk/cultivator/

Our Customer of the Week is the Chapeltown Tap! A fab little micropub in the north of Sheffield, they're hosting us for a Meet the Brewer on the 13th October and we're really looking forward to it. Email [email protected] to snap up your tickets!

Shout out to our brewer, barrel wrangler, mixed ferm maestro, Black Mass superfan and all round good egg Jim, who today has been part of Team Abbeydale for AN ENTIRE DECADE! Congratulations Jim, we'll be raising a glass of something Reinheitsgebot friendly to you later on 😉🍻
