Description
We are a modern craft brewery and tap room founded in 2014 in Rivington. Focusing on innovative modern styles, while drawing inspiration from the past.
Our inspiration comes from the world over, but our focus is very much local. We concentrate on making the best beer in styles we love, for the people in our local communities. Our passion for the North West is paid back tenfold. We have local landlords who buy whatever we make, no matter the style - from barleywine to grisette - we’re really lucky that so many places support us because they like our beers, and their customers love to try anything local. The people we look up to are all the brewers who are never content with the beers that they’re making - you can always be better.

Panda thanks to Cloin. A mild to medium haze on this gold beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head. Airy palate, mildly dry, good fine minerally carbonation. Light smooth pale malts, a pleasant light creamy sweetness. Hops bite from the get go. A refreshing bitter edge along with mild hop spice. Juicy if slightly ripe Krush goodness and a fair smack of Motueka lime on the back end. Comes together well into a most satisfying affair. What?

Keg at Cool Head Craft Beer Garden Festival 2026.
The beer poured hazy and orange in color.
Nettles in aroma, light herbalness. Nice citrus, fruity flavors. Pleasantly dry. Good.
