Description
Mark and Helena Dearman set up Twisted Wheel Brew Co with their daughters Laura and Charlotte in October 2019. We assembled a great team with a wealth of experience and set about brewing some of the best beer we’ve ever made.
Located at the former Windmill Brewery site in Standish, Wigan. Relocated in Winter 2020 to Westbrook, Warrington. They announced that they were closing towards the end of 2022, however, the former head brewer Anthony Barrett bought the brand in the beginning of 2023. But in March 2023 they couldn't use the facility any longer and plans had to be changed. Their beers are now cuckoo brewed, initially at Ben's Brewery Ltd but now at C'84 Brew Co.

Pump clip spells 'Blackcurrent' instead of 'Blackcurrant' - perhaps the shame is why they closed down....

Cask @ Architect, Chester. Hazy yellow-blonde with a thinnish head. Citrus based brew, which is pronounced units nose, but more of a base in taste allowing a light hoppiness, a hint of pine and some sweetened citric notes.
