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 light haze on this dirty looking gold beer, small bubbly pale cream colour head. Light palate, a little dry, good fine minerally carbonation. Light smooth malts, sweet enough. Crisp cooling pine. Decent Idaho 7 broad spectrum piney fruity goodness. Candy fruits. A little spearmint, WTF? Trace of melon. Light crisp finish. Tastes great, why does it look murky.

Can picked up from Shiny brewery fridges and consumed at Isobel and Jude's, Spond, Herefordshire, Tuesday 10th June 2025 in the company of Dad, Pauline, Isobel and Jude. Pours black with a mid beige, actually heading towards tan head that soon is a small filminess. Spices, chocolate, caramel and roasted malt dominate the nose. The taste following a similar path, but with the chilli providing a pleasant warmth. A regular size can on my own at the end of the evening wasn't a wise choice, as I couldn't finish it all, however it was a good beer.
