About Moles Brewery

Moles Brewery was a brewery established in 1985, producing real ales at their facility in Melksham, Wiltshire, England. The business was sold to Wickwar Wessex in 2017. Originally a mineral water producer, the company developed real ales to diversify their business, and a custom-built 10-barrel plant was installed in the brewhouse at Bowerhill, Melksham. The business was named Moles Brewery, inspired by the owner's nickname. Moles Cask Bitter was the brewery's first real ale offering. Black Rat cider was introduced in 1995. In July 2017, on the retirement of the founders, the Moles brands were sold to Wickwar Wessex Brewing Co, Wickwar, Gloucestershire. The sale included six pubs and a drinks wholesale business, Cascade Drinks Ltd.
