Bridgnorth Brewing Company

The Bridgnorth Brewing Company is one of Shropshire's newest breweries and commenced production in late 2006. It has been formed by two local men and one Black Country Brewer who are passionate about their town and ale. Directors Richard Beaman, Simon Lucas and Andrew Brough are reviving a long forgotten brewery.

The Bridgnorth Brewery can be found in the heart of Bridgnorth's High Town, situated in an idyllic location steeped in history and tradition occupying the site of an old Brew House with records tracing back as far as the 1600's. A brewery that would have supplied its own Tap House and local Inns in and around the market town.

It is the intention of the new brewery to bring back its original legacy to create a fine range of locally brewed ales to the newly opened Tap House, to the Town and to the countrside.

The Brewery is designed to produce good quality ales at a high standard and consistent basis using traditional brewing methods, which includes a double drop fermenting system, used by Victorian brewers for a special rare two-stage fermentation process. Head Brewer Andrew Brough chooses the ingrediaents with care and attention. Local hops from Hereford and Worcester are sourced and a mixture of malt from a local farm and maltster give local pride and a distinctive easy drinking experience associated with Bridgnorth Ales.
