Cross Bay Brewing Co beers are brewed using premium, natural ingredients in order to give a great, distinctive taste. We combine skilful brewing, creativity and innovation to produce a varied range of permanent and seasonal cask ales.
At Cross Bay Brewery, we pride ourselves in handcrafting our beer with little to no automation, to ensure that the beer is of the highest quality possible.
The brewery is kept meticulously clean and every brew is tested to make sure that it meets the highest of standards. Every step of the ale journey is kept at the highest quality possible; right from the brewery to the tap.

BREWED BY: OUR AWARD WINNING TEAM
Cross Bay’s head brewer Nick Taylor first became involved in brewing ten years ago. In March 2012 after only being in operation eight months, the brewery was awarded it’s first Champion Trophy at the Lancaster Beer Festival, winning the Strong Bitters category with Zenith. Zenith has also gone on to win Beer of the Festival at both Morecambe Beer Festival and Burnley Beer Festival.
Nick and the brewing team, Arthur and Dan are looking to the future and their passion and dedication to brewing Real Ale is already recognised as a success.
That hasn’t stopped the brewery team’s quest for quality beer as they now look toward consistently producing more award winning ales for the nation to enjoy.
And enjoy they have, as our beers have been available from as far North as Loch Ness and as far South as Southend so far...
