John Thompson Inn and Brewery

History

Brewing started in outbuilding to this pub converted from a 15th century farmhouse in May 1977. A 12 barrel brewplant was installed. In 1983 one of the people behind the brewery left to set up Lloyds Country Beers who brewed all their beer on the plant at the John Thompson Inn and also brewed the John Thompson Inn beers. In the early 1990s a contract brewery called High Peak had their beers brewed here. In June 1998, Lichfield Brewery moved in to share the plant, with the two breweries using separate fermenting rooms. In early 2002, Lloyds left the site and John Thompson started brewing again from the pub.

Footnote - Since the 1974 local government reorganisation there has been much controversy over many county boundaries. The links we provide cover both possibilities; Ceremonial Counties which are the areas for which a Lord-Lieutenant has been appointed; and Historic Counties (and their allied county boroughs) which represent the position before the 1974 re-organisation.
