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.

Keg @ Drink? Hebden Bridge. Hazy orange coloured with a creamy head. Hopped, slightly dry tasting and at its most fruity in its nose, although the citrus orange evident here is also to be found in its taste.

17th July 2016. Cask pint in The Crown Inn, Oakengates Shropshire. Black bodied with a full and lasting creamy textured head. Aroma had roasted/toasted malts and liquorice with a little dark chocolate. The taste was also malty with, liquorice and dark chocolate, some hedgerow fruits in the flavour too. Decent.

Cask @ Molly House, Manchester. Golden with a thin head. Its nose is a little ordinary, but it has an identifiably pal ale texture, with a light fruity dryness, although it could have been a lot crisper served.

Keg @ Drink? Hebden Bridge. Includes a crisp balance of malts and hops, with a grittier dryness behind this, but has a good fruitiness in its taste.
