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.

Bottle online from Beers Of Europe. Pours a hazy amber colour with a huge foamy white head. Light aromas of floral, citrus lemon and vinegar. Taste has notes of melon and pineapple, fruit salad, some more floral, a touch more citrus and some peppery spice. Tangy fruity notes, some more citrus and earthy hops lingering on the finish. Thin to medium body, light carbonation and fairly smooth mouthfeel. The beers i have sampled from this Brewery all have this original and unique flavour to them. I like them all. Good stuff. Well done Burton Bridge thanks for being different!

Bottle online from Beers Of Europe. Label: 7.5% abv. Pours a murky chestnut brown colour with no head. Aromas of dry dark fruits, caramel, brown bread and flowers. Quite a unique musky aroma. Taste has more dry dark fruits (figs, raisins, prunes), more caramel, more flowery notes and a lot of peppery spice. Thin body, low carbonation and smooth oily mouthfeel. Could do with more body but has big dark fruity and caramel flavours with lots of warm spices and alcohol on the finish. Very good unique beer I like it.

Bottle online from Beers Of Europe. Pours a murky amber/orange colour with a large thick foamy off white head. Aroma is very unusual and fruity with stoney fruits, some melon and notes of candy. Taste is again very fruity with more stoney fruits, apricots and peaches, more melon, some floral, tangerines, marmalade, tea and peppery spice. Slight orange pith on a hoppy finish. Full body, low carbonation and smooth slightly oily mouthfeel. Very good unique tasting beer which got better and better with each sip.
