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.

Cask @ Brink, Manchester. Hazy golden, smooth and soapy with a hoppy texture. There's light sugars and has a sweetened taste. It gets a tad fruitier in its nose.

Cask at the Gas Lamp, Manchester. Black with a creamy light brown head. A slow dense supping brew, it's not too roasted and not too coffee either in its dark malts. It has a light sticky sweetness with some ice cream flavour in its sweetened finish.

Keg @ Beatnikz Republic Bar, Manchester. Cloudy and very dark brown with wine-like aromas fused with dark malts. Its strength is evident and it's also a tad spicy with lots of bretted styling - also somewhat sour.
