The
George Wright Brewery started producing and selling their quality
ales in the spring of 2003. The original plant consisted of a 2 ½
barrel system purchased from the Wolf Brewery in early 2002. It soon
became apparent this was far too small and a 5 barrel brewing plant
was sourced from the Tomlinson brewery 6 months later.

|
| Despite
producing award winning ales the brewer, Keith Wright, knew that consistency and quality go hand in hand and whereas
the 5 barrel plant could produce quality ales it was never going to
produce the consistency they required. |
|
In
late 2003 the decision was taken to purchase a new
brewery. The brewery would be a fully computer
controlled 25 barrel plant housed in a 7000 sq. ft building, producing
both consistent and high quality ales demanded by landlords and customers
alike. |
|
The new brewery was designed using a CAD 3D model that enabled Keith to ‘walk around’ the brewery before it was built
(This model can still be seen by visitors to the brewery) .The whole
brewing process has been designed to ensure that the highest quality
ale possible is produced and a substantial investment in both time
and money has been made to ensure that every cask is perfect. |
