Hide AdA statement from the North Bar says: "When the lockdown was announced we took the decision to close our bars completely and concentrate our efforts on establishing a home delivery service to keep our regular customers supplied with their favourite North beers in Leeds.
"This service was set up over night with a google form, an email address, and a very active WhatsApp group!
"The reaction from the local community was fantastic and has quite literally kept us in business over the past few months.
"We have since taken our webshop in house and integrated our free local delivery service into the online shop.

"The bottle shops will be selling North cans straight from the fridge, guest beers, wine, snacks, merchandise and mini kegs.
"The mini kegs will be 5l (or 8.8 pints) of draught beer to dispense at home – when paired with a bag of crisps ripped open at the seam it’s almost like being sat in your local."
The opening hours on Friday and Saturday are noon to 7pm.
The full list of North Brewing Co pop-up bottle shops is:
Alfred // Further North // Leeds City Tap // Preston // North Bar Harrogate // North Bar Social
