Little Valley Brewery
Little Valley Brewery is a family-run business founded in 2005. All our beers are brewed, bottled and branded high on the Pennine moorland of Cragg Vale, just outside Hebden Bridge.
We use traditional techniques to create original beers, each and every one 100% vegan-friendly and all but a few certified organic. It’s a combination of old methods and new ideas that helps us to deliver a range that’s natural, unique and always perfectly balanced.
