Description
The Brew Foundation grew out of a father and son’s love of beer. After a combined 60 years of painstaking research we decided it was time to begin crafting the beers we love to drink and start sharing them with you. We hope you enjoy them as much as we do.

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.
