Owners Christine and Stephen Ditchfield have three pugs (hence the name) who sometimes join them when they are selling the products. Described as "the perfect pairing for any tonic", every bottle is hand distilled, labelled and bottled by the distillery's owners, John and Anna in the small village. Christine said: “Brexit and the Pandemic have certainly had a large part to play in our decision along with the gin market now saturated with so many different small distillers. However we are very proud of our achievements and are signing off with a fond farewell.

A common sight on the Cheshire food and drinks markets and festival circuit, 3 Pugs Gin is distilled in Warrington. Tatton Brewery is a family-run brewery in Knutsford, just a stone’s throw from Tatton Park. Here's what they have to say: We have nothing to hide and that’s the way you have to be when you’re looking after someone’s pet. I’ve been offered franchises but I have refused and trademarked the name as I would never allow anyone else to look after the dogs. I live and breathe this; I see and know every dog, what they like to eat and their personal habits.’ Moving into semi-retirement, I’ve always supported charities and to start working for one helping people unemployed in the town is something that I’m really looking forward to.Originally launched in her garden shed seven years ago, Christine Ditchfield was joined by her husband Ste as they expanded to business premises at Penketh, inspired by two of the loves in their lives – pugs and gin. Delicious", "glorious" and "stunning" are just a few of the words used by recent customers to describe Wincle ales. They pride themselves on creating a delightful product that people really want to savour; whether it is a pint in your local or a bottle consumed at home. Wincle know that taste and quality are key to the enjoyment and that is why they never create beers that they wouldn't actually want to drink themselves. Wincle pride themselves on sourcing the majority of their ingredients from within the UK. Nothing is more local than the main ingredient: water which comes from their own spring at the Brewery. Locally sourced is both key to Wincle’s brand story and it also means they can create very unique, premium tasting beers.

Like many a Warringtonian before us, including our Grandad. We’ve travelled the world – working and learning – and the people we met, the beer we drank, the flavours of those places, have inspired what we make today. Every bottle, every draught, contains all those experiences, all that history plus the finest British malts, yeast and hops from around the world. And a whole lotta love from our brewery (here) in Warrington." Our team is made up of very passionate, local people - many of whom were completely new to the industry but were keen to get involved in something they loved.” Capesthorne Gin uses lots of lemon and cubeb Pepper.
