## About

Established in 2001, Mayflower Brewery was founded in Standish Myles; who was the captain of The Mayflower, hence the name! We have been brewing ever since and have honed our specialist recipes to perfect our five core ales - Wigan Bier, Pie PA, Swinley Gold, Douglas Valley and Lancashire Stout.

We’ve since moved into our new Hindley premises in 2018, where we continue to brew our proper cask ales, providing our lovely customers in Wigan and beyond with our top quality ales.

All our ales are handcrafted and conditioned in 9 gallon casks, with other sizes available on request. We offer free, local delivery 7 days a week, for your convenience. 

Our five core ales are available throughout the year, with one off guest ales created, depending on the season and special events. Our core range is also available to buy in 500ml bottle and gift packs.
