Brewed on the Union - Thursday 7 August - 13:00 - 14:30
(Member Only)
(14 tickets
remaining)
Join legendary beer writer Roger Protz as he chats with Thornbridge’s Head Brewer, Rob Lovatt, and Dominic Driscoll about the fascinating history of the iconic Burton Union system. This 19th-century brewing method was originally crafted to cleanse beer of yeast and create brilliantly clear pale ales. Earlier this year, Carlsberg Marston’s Brewing Company made the tough call to close the last of these historic Union sets in Burton, but not before donating one to Thornbridge. The Marston’s team headed to Bakewell to set it up, and now Rob and his crew are using this classic kit to create some extraordinary brews. Don’t miss the chance to sample the unique beers they've crafted using this timeless technique!
