Harrogate Town FC and Black Sheep Brewery in Masham have collaborated to launch a new beer.
Called Yellow Black Army, the launch is part of the brewery’s official sponsorship of the club.
The beer, which is a session IPA, will be available to buy online and from the club’s shop on Commercial Street from Monday.
Simon Weaver, manager of Harrogate Town, said:
“I’m sure our fans will be delighted to be able to drink our very own, official beer.
“Just like our club, Black Sheep does things its own way and has created a unique sense of identity in the process. We can’t wait to see our fans’ response to Yellow Black Army, and give them another chance to enjoy how far our club has come in recent years.”

“We’ve been working really hard behind-the-scenes to create a beer that perfectly encapsulates the essence of Harrogate Town AFC, and we think fans will absolutely love the final result.
“Given the club’s recent promotion to the Football League for the first time in its history, we felt it was only right to celebrate Harrogate Town’s success in true Black Sheep fashion – with its very own, official beer.
“Our deal with Harrogate Town is the first time Black Sheep has sponsored a football club."
The sponsorship deal is for two years with an option to extend. It’s the first time the company has sponsored a football club.
