Burton Bridge Brewery
Brewpub
in Burton upon Trent,
Staffordshire,
England 🏴
Owned by
Heritage Brewing Co. / William Worthington Brewery
Associated with 3 Venues
Established in 1982
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.

My first beer in the new front terrace seating at the Exchange Ale House in Bradford - only made possible by the complete pedestrianisation of the city centre in the last year. Who says councils don't come up with any good ideas? Traditional low bitterness bitter for my outdoor drinking experience, looks good, easy enough strength.
