Saltaire Brewery was set up in Shipley, West Yorkshire, by Tony Gartland and Derek Todd. The company dates from 2005 and the first beer followed in 2006. The brewhouse on Dockfield Road stands beside the Leeds and Liverpool Canal, near the mill village of Saltaire that gives the business its name. Pale cask ales named after their hops form the backbone of the range, led by Saltaire Blonde and joined by a bitter and a chocolate stout. Since August 2024 the brewery has belonged to Paramount Retail Group; a taproom operates next door, and the plant also brews under contract.

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.
