Description
WHERE THE MAGIC HAPPENS

We started trial brewing on a home brew kit back in early 2009 when the country was in the depths of the recession, which is partly how the name Brightside arose. That and the fact that we also like The Killers!

These days weโ€™re an established name in Manchester, with a reputation for quality consistency and service. Our beers can be found in many of the free of tie pubs and bars in the city, out towards Crewe and Chester in the South, through the Wirral, and up to Preston in the North (in fact, across much of the UK by way of swapped casks with partner breweries and wholesalers).

Keg @ D'Ale, Hebden Bridge. Hazy golden with a head. It's fruity-floral, but slightly more of the former, and English in style.

Cask @ D'Ale, Rochdale. Golden with a bubbly head. It's a hopped session ale, a tad thin but still fine enough.
