NB as of mid-2022, the Saturday 1600-2200hrs open session has been suspended for a year or so. This is because Ventile are temporarily running Station Hop bar in Levenshulme on a maternity cover basis. The Ventile beers feature at Station Hop as a consequence.
Former industrial premises that form the brewery and its associated brew tap. A no-frills interior with picnic tables-cum-refectory style seating in which to enjoy the rustic ambience of the place. The modern well-maintained brew kit can be examined at close quarters. You can buy their beers for consumption off the premises too. The beer is live by CAMRA's definition and they are served from membrane-keg containers. The Ventile name is a nod to WWII history in Manchester. It was a cotton fabric invented in the city that found favour for fighter pilot's flying suits that extended their survival chances should they ditch in water.
Historic Interest
