Based in the High Street of Burton-on-Trent, Allsopp's can be
traced back to the 1740's. Samuel Allsopp acquired the brewery
in 1807. A new brewery and offices were constructed in 1859-60
close to the railway station in Burton. Throughout the 19th
century Allsopp's brewing business was second only to Bass in
size. The new brewery site alone stretched between Station
Street and Horninglow Street. They retained the original brewery
in High Street, built a large maltings at Shobnall and numerous
premises elsewhere. Samuel Allsopp was the first to export
Burton Pale Ale to India in 1822. |
