For something I’m working on I was looking for a list of all the breweries in Greater Manchester. And couldn’t find one.
So here’s something I’ve cribbed from a few different places, I’m not sure yet if these are all still open, and I’ve almost certainly missed some. So if you know of any mistakes or omissions, please let me know and I’ll update it!

Who are Howfen?
Don’t worry, I just looked them up!
ShinDigger now being brewed at Glen Affric in Birkenhead
I think they’re brewed at several places, including some in GM.
State Of Kind Brew co in Ince near Wigan so I believe.
Cheers! Just added it.
Outstanding are no more and have effectively been succeeded by Strange Times.
Noted and updated, cheers!
Seems like you missed Bootleg from Chorlton.
What about The Beer Studio and Kansas Avenue? Not sure if they are contract brewers or just Hydes brands?
I believe that Bootleg haven’t brewed on site for a while now, and The Beer Studio is a Hydes brand.
