History

The brewery was established at The Robin Hood Public House, Primrose, Jarrow in 2002 by owners Jess and Alison McConnell.[1] The brewery at first supplied two pubs, The Robin Hood itself, and The Albion Inn, Bill Quay, also owned by Jess and Alison.[2]

Trade picked up very quickly and soon a deal was struck up with beer distributor Flying Firkin to supply other pubs nationwide with the beer. Beers produced included "Jobling's Swinging Gibbett", a 4.1% copper coloured ale and "Old Cornelius", a dark strong ale at 4.8%, named after Cornelius Whalen, the last surviving Jarrow Marcher.[3] Jess and Alison McConnell later opened the "Westoe Brewery" at "The Maltings" public house in South Shields.[4] Brewing ceased at the Robin Hood in Summer 2008.[5]

The brewery hit serious financial complications in 2015 and it was placed in to administration. A rescue company was formed by the breweries management, however it also fell in to administration just months later, with all pubs closing and brewery activities ceasing.[6] Jarrow Brewing's equipment, trademarks and rights to the real ale names were bought by the Great North Eastern Brewing Company of Dunston.[7]

gollark: The thing is that the GPU isn't really integrated into normal compute use very much, even when it could probably be used effectively.
gollark: Idea for an instruction set: x86-64 MOV, but no other instructions.
gollark: I guess so. ARM SoCs for phones already have the high/low-powered cores dichotomy.
gollark: I think what would be pretty good is having CPUs with a few high-single-thread-perf cores, like we have now, some lower-powered cores, and a lot of parallel processing ones (like GPUs).
