A brewery tap on an industrial estate, and industrial it certainly is. Zero attempt to create any kind of pub/bar ambience. As I often have to work in and around a warehouse, it isn’t really an environment I want in my “off time”! Pricy as you would expect for experimental keg and the staff weren’t exactly helpful when I was finding something I wanted to drink from the 12 numbered taps. Admittedly my schooner of something hoppy was rather nice. A burger van was parked outside along with a few benches. Glad to have visited but I can’t see myself trekking down here again, it should be a useful place for Evertonians though.

One of two brewery and taprooms on this small industrial estate (the other being Carnival across the road). The bar is to your left on entering and here you will find up to 12 keg Ales of varying strengths and styles. It not too bad a place. Fold up benches and tables outside for open air drinking but it was way too hot for that stuff so I limited myself to the inside.

This brewery tap for Azvex (the same owners as Neon Raptor in Nottinghamshire) opened in a warehouse building to the north of Liverpool city centre in April. On a nice sunny Saturday, there were quite a few customers taking advantage of the outdoor tables to the front of the warehouse. Inside was quite spacious and we received a cheerful welcome from the 2 barmaids. Selection is made easy by the large beer list high to the right of the bar. Whilst there's no cask ale here, there was a good range of craft beers to suit all tastes - Slow Gear, Electronic Butterfly, Iceberg Tetromino, Digital Hieroglyphics, Space Telescopes, Miniature Trees, Suburban Crocodile, Parkour Pigeons, The Fermi Paradox, Sunset Breeze & Madagascan Infusion. The latter was a lovely 12% double chocolate imperial stout, that was divine. Inside, seating is on bench seating on long tables, with the brewery itself to the rear. A small cart was selling some kind of food that we didn't investigate. Should be handy for the new football stadium once built, being no more than 20 minutes walk away.
