Description
Shane Swindells began Cheshire Brewhouse in 2012, but has been passionate about beer and the joyful sociability of pubs from an early age — ‘beer was special, it was the stitches that held the fabric of society together’. Home is the historic town of Congleton, where it is based on a small industrial estate in the Dane Valley, close to the greenness of Congleton Park. Using bespoke-made brewing kit that makes 2880 pints per brew, Swindells produces an award-winning and vegan-friendly range of beers that can be enjoyed in cask, keg, bottle and can. As well as its historic recipes, Cheshire Brewhouse produces a superb range of modern craft beers that resonate with the bright colours and tropical fruit aromas of American hops such as Citra and Amarillo as well as English varieties such as East Kent Goldings.

Keykeg at the Cambridge Beer Festival, 2017. Amber hazy and heavily carbonated. A film of beige head sits on top. Raspberry, candy sugar and champagne cola in the aroma. I thought it would be overly sweet but there is a gauntlet of bitterness that coats the back of the tongue. Bitter finish with more intensely bitter versions of the aroma notes popping up in the aftertaste. Light body. Pretty good.
