The Ideal Standard for Brewing in Chester
WC Brewery in Chester was in operation from approximately 2003 to 2011, initially as a hobby then it went commercial.
The brewlength was only 46 Litres (1 cask) and the brewing was conducted in the utility room of a private house.
It just goes to show, it's not your equipment but what you do with it that counts.
