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.

Cask at CBC, Covent Garden on 1st June 2025. Crystal clear amber with shallow, loose foam and spot lacing. Lush and broad citrus aroma of juice and peel. Nutty malts, citrus peel and juice with just the hint of a minted spice in-mouth. A complex citrus finish. Some nuttiness. Velvet smooth mouthfeel and a full body.

Cask at CBC, Covent Garden on 1st June 2025 on a session with Svesse. Rated as a novelty ale.Dark brown with dullish white foam and full lacing. Fruity plum aroma. Rich sweet, and just pre-ripe, fresh damson plums in-mouth, before an intense damson finish. Crisp mouthfeel and a medium body. Quite unexpectedly enjoyable.

Cask at The Rusty Bucket, Eltham. Nice fruity nose, spot of passionfruit, peach, tropical fruits. Taste is grapefruit, underripe mango, spot of peach lurking around in the background. Long hoppy aftertaste. Goes down rather nicely.

Definitely has a bit of barleywine character. Mildly spiced, finishes a little bitter, and FAR too carbonated.

Fra cask på Craft Beer Co, Covent Garden: lett uklar gylden med ok skum. Lite aroma og heller intetsigende smak, jeg hadde forventet mye mer av Sabro (eksempelvis tropiske frukter, mynte og kokos). Mer som en fuktskade i pappmache.

Cask at Craft Beer Co St Mary Axe. Darkest brown. Little to no light makes it through. Frothy lightly foamed beige head provides about 50% coverage. Aroma has chocolate, nougat and nuts. Sweet with a hint of bitterness. Initial sweetness - as per aroma - followed by a tart berry steak and black coffee bitterness. Actually... it gets quite vinous. Medium bodied. Oily. Soft carbonation. Long astringent finish. Characterful American Brown.
