History

The brewery is located in a converted pig sty behind the Black Bull Inn which started brewing in September 1995. A 10BBL plant is used. Following the success of Bluebird Bitter winning CAMRA's Champion Beer of Britain in 1998 some production of Bluebird, mainly for bottling has been done under contract by WH Brakspear & Sons PLC. Following the closure of Brakspear in 2002, the bottled version of Bluebird has been reportedly brewed by Ridgeway Brewing at Hepworth & Company Brewers Ltd.
