Small brewery and gin distillery in Sheffield City Centre. The brewery was opened in 2016 and the company changed their name from Forum Cafe Bars to True North.
They supply their bars which include the Broadfield, Waggon & Horses, British Oak, Forum Cafe Bar, Old Grindstone, Punchbowl and Horse & Jockey plus the free trade. In 2020 they started brewing the cask version of Stones Bitter, which is now a Coors brand but was originally brewed at the long since closed Cannon brewery in Sheffield.
True North won our Champion Beer of Sheffield competition in 2022 with Devika.
