Kelham Island Brewery
The
Kelham Island Brewery is an independent brewery based in
Sheffield, England. The brewery currently owns two
public houses in Sheffield, the
Fat Cat and the
Devonshire Cat. Also, there is an American-styled sports bar in Sheffield named Champs, and a British-styled pub in Rochester, NY (USA), named the Old Toad, all owned by the same proprietor, Dave Wickett.
The brewery was opened in 1990 on purpose-built premises on Alma Street in Sheffield by the owner of the Fat Cat public house, and has acquired a reputation for producing fine
cask ales such as
Kelham Gold and
Pale Rider.
Pale Rider won the "Championship Beer of Britain" award at the 2004
Campaign for Real Ale (CAMRA) organised Great British Beer Festival. It is also being brewed at a different brewery affiliated with the Kelham Island Brewery to cope with the heavy demand for this beer after winning the title.
The brewery is situated next to the
Kelham Island Industrial Museum.
