TATTON BREWERY RE-OPENS!
The much respected Tatton brewery has reopened under new ownership four months after closing.
Now, Tatton Brewery is celebrating a new lease of life after teaming up with award winning Wantsum Brewery in Kent.
The Knutsford company on Longridge Trading Estate announced ‘with a heavy heart’ that it was closing in February after 14 years.
The firm said it was ‘truly saddened’ to shut down due to unprecedented increases in the cost of living, fuel prices and raw materials.
Owner and founder Gregg Sawyer decided to step away from the business due to family responsibilities. The team said it was ‘no longer viable’ for them to carry on.
However, recently, the brewery said it was delighted to announce it is back in business, with many of the old team.
In a statement, the brewery said: “Continuing with the Tatton name and reputation for producing consistent, high quality cask beer. We are also pleased to announce our partnership with the award winning and well established Wantsum Brewery, based in Kent.
“Like us, the team at Wantsum are passionate about brewing quality cask beers using the best ingredients to delight their discerning customers.
“This partnership will allow us to leverage
- a broad skill set
- produce a larger, innovative new range of great beers
These can be enjoyed by a broader audience.”
Head brewer, Gazza Prescott who had been brewing the Tatton Beers for the last 12 months, said: ‘This is an exciting time for the brewery and the team.
“I’m looking forward to getting things back up and running again, plus we’ve some exciting ideas for future brews.”
The Cotswold's Leading Micro Brewery
Recognised as the Cotswold’s leading micro-brewery, Goffs Brewery was founded in Winchombe by Marcus and Alison Goff.
It was their aim to establish a family concern, using a closely-guarded traditional recipe.
Marcus’s father, master brewer Brian Goff, created the first batch of ‘Jouster’ in 1994 – a good honest session bitter. This has twice been a finalist in CAMRA’s Great British Beer Festival, as well as many other regional awards.
Further recognition as ‘Gloucestershire’s Champion Best Bitter’ in 1999 created a great demand for Goff’s ales, which are now available in pubs, inns and hotels throughout the West Country.
