Rooster's Brewing Co.
Rooster's opened in Harrogate in 1993 and stood out among a sea of brown beer with new-world pale ales, with Yankee leading the way. Founded by Sean Franklin, the brewery now sits at Hornbeam Park and is in the hands of brothers Tom and Oliver Fozard, with Oliver as Head Brewer. Flagship Baby-Faced Assassin began as a 25 litre homebrew batch. Cask, keg and can, with the emphasis on flavour and aroma.

How we measure this
Two thresholds are at work here:
- The signature list shows notes that recur in at least 6% of this brewery's beers. A low bar — enough to flag a pattern, not high enough to call it an exclusive trait.
- The peer comparison below shows only notes where this brewery's coverage differs from similar breweries by at least 20 percentage points. A higher bar — enough to call a real difference, not a nudge.
A note can appear on the signature list without appearing in the peer comparison: it recurs here, but similar breweries do the same thing.
