At Yates’ Brewery, we’re proud to announce an exciting new chapter in our brewing journey. The beer and ale brewed at Yates’ Brewery are now brewed using locally grown Isle of Wight grain, bringing every pint even closer to the Island we call home.
Using Isle of Wight-grown grain allows us to create beer that’s rooted in local farming, quality ingredients and genuine Island character. It’s another step in our commitment to producing exceptional beer while supporting our local community.
Why We’re Brewing Beer with Isle of Wight Grain
Great beer starts with great ingredients, and we’ve always believed that where those ingredients come from matters.
By introducing locally grown grain into our brewing process, our beer becomes even more connected to the people, farms and landscape that make our Island unique.
It’s not just about brewing excellent beer; it’s about celebrating everything that makes the Isle of Wight special.
Supporting Isle of Wight Farmers
Working with local growers means we’re helping strengthen the relationship between farming and brewing on the Island.
Choosing local grain supports the Isle of Wight’s agricultural community while reducing the distance our ingredients travel. It’s a practical step towards more sustainable brewing and one that helps keep more of the value of every pint within the local economy.
Every batch of our beer brewed with Isle of Wight grain supports local businesses and showcases the quality of Island-grown ingredients.
Better Ingredients, Better Beer
The quality of our beer has always started with carefully selected ingredients.
Using Isle of Wight-grown grain gives our brewers another opportunity to create beers that reflect the Island’s character. Every pint is brewed with the same care and attention you’ve come to expect from Yates’ Brewery, now with an even stronger connection to local agriculture.
Whether you’re enjoying one of our traditional ales or trying a seasonal special, you’ll be tasting an authentic Isle of Wight grain beer made with local pride.
From Field to Beer
Our move to brewing with locally grown grain is an exciting milestone, but it’s only one part of our ongoing journey.
We’re committed to finding new ways to support local suppliers, reduce food miles and continue brewing beer that represents the very best of the Isle of Wight.
Every glass tells the story of local farming, skilled brewing and the community that inspires us every day.
We look forward to sharing that story with you, one pint at a time.
