About
In 2009 Blackedge Brewery was founded born of Shaun and Wayne’s passion for good beer. The name is a combination of our respective home villages at the time, Blackrod and Edgworth.

11 years on we have become a well-known award-winning microbrewery at the heart of the small independent brewing community in the North West. We are SIBA FSQ accredited and members of the SIBA Independent Assured Brewer programme which ensures the beers we make are of the highest quality. We take pride in the quality beers we provide.

Resolve 2013 from Blackedge Brewing

4.6/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 4 Flavor 4 Texture 6 Overall 4.5
Shared with Finn, half pint cask ale at the New Oxford Winter Ales Festival. Bubbly rings at the surface. Clear amber-gold coloured body. Mid sweet malty to the nose added by fruity tartness. Modest flavour of semi-tart fruits with malty sweetness beneath. Rather sharp fruity ending. Soft in the mouth. Not that well balanced (Greater Manchester, 27.01.2013).
