There are breweries that make great beer, and then there are breweries that change the way you think about beer. For us, Omnipollo has always been firmly in the second camp. We’ve been lucky enough to work with them for over six years now, but visiting them in Stockholm recently reminded us just how special they are. Omnipollo don’t just brew beers, they build worlds. Their taproom feels like an art gallery as much as a brewery, and every beer tells a story: bold, colourful, a little bit wild, but always brewed with absolute precision.

Big news from Cave Direct: our Manchester warehouse has a brand-new home! After years of serving the North from Piccadilly and Ardwick, we’ve outgrown our space once again. With this, we have now moved to a bigger, better site in Hyde.
The new warehouse is double the capacity of our previous site, giving us the room we need to expand our cold storage, improve logistics, and most importantly, bring even more beer to the customers we supply across the region.
From Cave Direct North's early days at Unit 101 in Manchester Piccadilly, to Ardwick, and now Hyde, the journey reflects how much our community of trade customers has grown. Each move has allowed us to keep pace with the demand for fresh, exciting beer, and this one is no different.
With more space comes:
- Higher stockholding – greater capacity means a wider range of the best breweries from the UK, Europe, and the US.

The legendary Oktoberfest in Munich - also known as the “Wiesn” - is the largest beer festival in the world as well as one of the most popular and longest-running folk festivals anywhere. It stands for conviviality, tradition and Bavarian “Gemütlichkeit”. For over 200 years now, people have come from all over the world to the Oktoberfest to commemorate this special occasion. The Oktoberfest Bier is an established component of the festivities and as such also a part of Munich’s rich brewing tradition. Paulaner brews the original Oktoberfest Bier. Indeed, it is one of only six Munich-based breweries that are permitted to brew and serve real Oktoberfest Bier. Paulaner has the vision to make Munich’s authentic way of life and the Paulaner beer culture experienceable worldwide – no matter if in Munich or at an official Paulaner Oktoberfest in the world.
