Wharfedale Brewery
"According to The Journal of The Brewery History Society,[1] Wharfedale Brewery began life as Wetherby Brewery in 1756 when it was established by brewer, maltster, and farmer John Rhodes. When John Rhodes died in 1780 he was succeeded in the brewery by his eldest son Gregory and his second son Quentin and the two of them guided the fortunes of the brewery well into the nineteenth century.[2]. Quentin Rhodes,[3] an important local businessman, made his fortune selling beer to many of the town's 15 pubs."
