New brewpub opened by the team that own the Dockyard pubs, which is fairly obvious when you look at the decor i.e. fairly minimalist with an industrial feel. I've been in here 3 times recently, so I thought I'd better get around to reviewing it. The brewery itself is to the right in its own glass area. Be aware that as you approach the bar the cask ales are all to the left hand side, partially hidden by a pillar. The centre of the bar is all craft keg at stupid prices e.g. £4.50 for a 2/3rds measure of Vocation. Only one of their own brewery beers available when I've been in, but there are 5 others to choose from. I've had a few in here and they've all been well kept. Cask ales are £3.50 per pint which is very reasonable for central Manchester. A very good addition to the Manchester beer scene.

Far better than the Liquor Store down the way. As far as I could see the strongest ale was 4.5%. This place was quite busy with some reserved tables.

An open plan place with an industrial feel to it. Its all exposed pipes, wooden pallets and ventilation ducts around the ceiling and as it brews its own beers the brewing equipment is on show to the right as you enter. 6 handpumps on the bar. The decor is not for me but you may like it.

A modern brew pub opened on 28/10/16 on the First Street complex on the site of the old Gaythorn Gasworks.
