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.

Can. Nose is coffee, slighly acidic, lots of maple syrup, nuts, rich black coffee. Taste is fruity, cherry, very sweet, syrup, leading to pistachio, icing sugar (!), vanilla, chocolate, more icing sugar, with a bitter coffee note fiting though the sweetness.

Its very sweet, but the rarest of thing in 2025; a nice pastry stout with well used adjuncts that are not flavourings.

500ml can, gusher. Pitch black with a very frothy dark brown head. Aroma is full of coconut and chocolate, some vanilla, dark/roast malts. Taste is quite sweet, loads of chocolate and coconut, creamy vanilla, dark malts, molasses, liquorice, bitter finish. Medium bodied, but massively overcarbonated - far too fizzy.
