Breweries

Mordue - based down the road in Wallsend the Mordue Brewery is over 100 years old and supplies our favourite beer Mordue IPA, as well as the classics Radgie Gadgie, Workie Ticket and other seasonals.
Hadrian & Border are responsible for some of our most regular ales and is another customer favourite. Based literally around the corner from the Free Trade, Hadrian & Border Brewery has a strong selection of core beers and an excellent range of festive additions.
Although only established in 2000, the Wylam Brewery is one of the regions best known and loved breweries. Operating out of an old dairy farm in Heddon-on-the-Wall, they produce some excellent bitters including the award winning Gold Tankard.
Jarrow Brewery, another young brewery, has gained a national reputation with their locally themed beers. Jarrow Bitter and Rivet Catcher are especially popular.
