Turning Point Brew Co. is an independent North Yorkshire brewery founded by friends Cameron Brown and Aron McMahon in 2017. Originally based in Kirkbymoorside before moving to Knaresborough in 2019, the brewery produces an ever-changing range of unfined and unfiltered beers with a playful identity inspired by hops, music and space travel.
Brewery story
Turning Point Brew Co. was founded by friends Cameron Brown and Aron McMahon, who began brewing in Kirkbymoorside, North Yorkshire, in 2017. The pair left their day jobs behind to launch the brewery, setting out to brew distinctive beers while learning, experimenting and having as much fun with the process as possible.
After just over two years at its original home, Turning Point relocated to Knaresborough in 2019, taking over the former Rooster's Brewery site. From there, the brewery has continued to produce an ever-changing range of beers, with a particular enthusiasm for hops, good music and the space-travel-inspired personality that runs throughout the Turning Point brand. Its beers are unfined and unfiltered.
Turning Point also has its own places to enjoy its beers on draught. The Falcon on Micklegate serves as the brewery tap, while The Outpost on Piccadilly in York provides a second outlet for Turning Point beers and the brewery's distinctive take on modern independent brewing.
Taproom
Turning Point's brewery taproom opens seasonally between spring and autumn, offering the chance to enjoy the brewery's beers fresh at their Knaresborough home. The taproom is not open every weekend, with selected opening dates announced throughout the season.
