Information:
The Three Tuns was first granted a licence in 1642 - making it the
UK's oldest licenced brewery. The famous Three Tuns Victorian
brewing tower was opened in 1888. The idea is to hoist all the
materials to the top of the tower and let gravity assist all the
transfers during the brewing process.
The tower is grade II listed and is
described as “a rare survival of a small, working rural
brewery”.
The current owners have
updated the equipment to blend state of the art technology with
ancient methods and craft - real ale is alive and well at the
Three Tuns.
