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.

Bottle from Drink? Hebden Bridge. Golden with a small carbonation and a head. Hoppy and slightly European maltiness, but mostly just a fairly bland tasting example and effort with this hop. Has a hint of fruit in aroma.

Bottle from Drink? Hebden Bridge. Dark reddy-brown colour with a very thin head. Sweetened dark malts, with some smoothness about them - the result is tasty and its high alcohol content doesn't impact the brew's taste. 'Cheshire' have done very well with the styling on this one.
