We currently cuckoo brew out of a great micro brewery near Macclesfield called the Wincle Beer Company. The brewery benefits from it’s own natural water source, an idyllic location and a very knowledgeable and talented team to bounce our ideas off.
With Robert being from Cheshire and James living in Sheffield for the last 15 years the brewery is perfectly positioned in the middle of both places, meaning we are able to distribute our craft beers throughout Cheshire, Sheffield, Manchester, Leeds and the surrounding areas.
Although we plan to develop a range of differing beer types our true passion lies in the pale side of the market, be it a smooth English pale ale, or a hoppy IPA. The Brew Foundation is a micro brewery specialising in brewing perfectly balanced beers.
For us “drinkability” is key: We believe that each pint should leave you wanting one more.

Pale and hoppy, with a bit of a spicy kick. Not getting the tropical flavours expected, but still very nice.

Hand-pulled cask pint on 27th Jan 2019; Pheasant Inn, Wellington Shropshire. golden body, clean and clear; white crown on top. Tropical fruit esters rule the nose with orange and mango's to the fore. Taste also citrus fruit centric with again mango and orange at the front, decent malty base for balance and maybe not as 'citrusy' as my review might indicate.

Can. Mitchell’s Wines, Sheffield. A brewery that I normally swerve, but you know, this is in a can with a promise of gooseberry and grapefruit from packing the beer with nelson. American ale yeast. Oats and wheat. What can wrong? Holy shit! For a start it’s completely clear, with a thick, bright white head (admittedly it’d make a good looking pils). The aroma is a grim mix of clarified butter and privet leaves. The taste is horribly bitter, with a buttery sweetness. Flabby mouthfeel. Nasty bitterness to finish. Bad.
