History
Dating back to the merger of Mitchell's and Butlers breweries in 1898, this was one of the largest cask breweries in the UK. It merged with Bass in 1961. Following a couple of takeovers, and now under the ownership of Coors Brewers, it was announced that this brewery was to close by the end of 2002 with production switched to Burton. In 2011 a series of fruit flavoured beers were produced, reportedly at Hydes.
