History

In 1994 a museum was opened in part of the main Bass brewery. As part of this, a recreation of a Victorian 25BBL tower plant was included using many authentic pieces of equipment. Although it was intended as a static exhibit, in December of that year brewing started here and was used to produce recreations of beers no longer brewed. These were generally sold under the name of the defunct brewery or as Museum Brewery Company. A number of third parties also brew beer on the plant. In time it was taken over by Molson Coors Brewing Company (UK) Limited". In 2010 it was relaunched as The White Shield Brewery. In 2016 the brewery was sold off to become a separate entity under its current name. The brewery was forced to stop brewing in 2023 due to the sale of its location but merged with Burton Bridge Brewery Ltd in 2024 and all production moved there.

Beers Brewed

We do not maintain a list of beers brewed by each brewery. There may be a list on the brewery's own website. A crowd-sourced beer list is also available on the Untappd page for this brewery. For historical information, we suggest you also visit the brewery page on the unfortunately no longer updated Beermad.

Since the 1974 local government reorganisation there has been much controversy over many county boundaries. The links we provide cover all areas possibilities: Ceremonial Counties which are the counties for which a Lord-Lieutenant has been appointed, Historic Counties (and their allied county boroughs) which represent the position before the 1974 re-organisation and Local Authority which represents the third tear District level.
