De Molen are one of the most highly respected breweries operating in the craft world today.

Here’s the beer list. All pouring on keg…

– North Brewing Co Tap Takeover

Thursday 28th July 2016 / 5pm – late

We are honoured to welcome Leeds’ North Brewing Co across the pennines for a special tap takeover at Port Street.

Set up by the pioneering Leeds-based bar group North Bar Ltd and the successful team behind Belgrave Music Hall and Headrow House, North Brewing Co (and taproom) opened in November 2015 at Taverner’s Walk Industrial Estate on the fringe of Leeds City Centre and initially serviced the eight bars currently operated by the two bar groups. Brewers Seb Brink (formerly of Golden Owl) and Darius Darwell (of Bristol Beer Factory) are behind the recipes of the beers, which vary from classic British styles to exciting and interesting flavour combinations.

The team have collaborated with a number of breweries in recent months, including Drygate Brewery in Glasgow and most recently brewing a Yorkshire rhubarb sour beer with Lervig Brewery from Norway. North have got a collaboration lined up with BrewDog and the Port Street team recently took a trip to Leeds to make a beer with North that you’ll be able to taste for the first time at this tap takeover.

Here’s the beer list…

Sputnik – 5% pale ale
Transmission – 6.9% west coast IPA
Full Fathom 5 – 6.5% coffee porter
