What, and who, makes Balance Brewing & Blending?

Balance was set up in 2021 by James Horrocks (Squawk) and Will Harris (Track) and is the only brewery in Manchester dedicated entirely to the production of barrel fermented, mixed culture beers. Their aim is to produce nuanced sour and funky beers in a range of styles, from bretted saisons to Lambic-inspired creations, utilising both wild captured and lab propagated yeasts and bacteria, while using only British ingredients.

James say: Saison de Maison was the first beer we dreamt up when starting Balance. It was key for us to nail a house saison that offered complexity as well as delicious drinkability. This bottling is a blend of two saisons fermented in ex-red wine barrels, using our house mixed culture, and dry hopped with Goldings before packaging. It has resulted in a beer with a nuanced brett character, contributing pineapple and a pronounced funk, that is complimented with subtle notes of spice from the dry hop. We're really pleased to be able share Saison de Maison with you.
