Description
Burton Bridge Brewery is a traditional style brewery that produces a wide range of beers.

We have stillaging and cooling equipment, will organise a selection of beers for you to approve and set it all up

For something a little different ask if we have our vintage Morris dray available. It has been on display at festivals and was used as a hearse for a funeral.

Mid-2024 the ownership of the Burton Bridge brewery has changed hands in a merger which also ensures the future of the town’s Heritage brewery.

The deal sees Burton Bridge come under the umbrella of leisure company Planning Solutions, which previously ran the National Brewery Centre in Burton, prior to Molson Coors’ decision to close it.

Gravicask, one-third pint, shared with Finn at GBBF Winter '23. Next-to-clear amber body, fair lacing from a filmy layer. Rather sweet smell of dried fruit and mid-sweet malts. Caramel, earth, and dried fruity flavours. Mid-sweet malty-fruit ending. Well bodied. Pretty good. (Burton upon Trent, 16.02.2023).
