Brewhouse to put beer and gin on tap
MOBBERLEY Brewhouse is set to open a tap room on Market Place, showcasing a variety of beer and gin.
Opening in August, Project 53 will offer both Mobberley Brewhouse beers and those from friends of the business.
Owner and head brewer James Roberts said: “There will be no competition between the craft beers we have on offer.
“It will just all be great beer, as well as a fantastic selection of gin.
“The knowledge and passion of all our staff will be what makes it special.
“Customers want personal recommendations on the beers and that’s what we can offer.”
The name ‘Project 53’ is derived from Cheshire’s latitudinal position of 53 degrees north on the map.
In addition to craft beer and gin, the tap room will also offer customers a selection of wine, cider and spirits.
A member of James’ family is also getting on board. Sister Sophie Roberts, aged 24, joins the business as operations director.
She said: “I am thrilled to be taking on the role of operations director for Project 53.
“Ever since James started the Mobberley Brewhouse business in 2011, I have been involved in one way or another.
“It’s great to finally formalise my involvement in the business and I am really excited about our plans for the future.”
