Hambleton Ales is a brewery that was established in 1991 in the tiny hamlet of Holme on Swale, in Hambleton, North Yorkshire, England. Initially based in a converted outbuilding, the brewery achieved the target production of 800 gallons a week, within the first six months, and an award-winning beer within the first year. Today, Hambleton Ales produces 100 barrels a week, employs a staff of fifteen and regularly exports to Europe and the USA. In 2007, Hambleton Ales moved to a larger Brewery on Barker Business Park, Melmerby.
