About

Hook Norton is one of only 32 family owned breweries and is the finest example of a Victorian Tower Brewery in the country.

Of course, the brewery is about so much more than just its fantastic range of award-winning beers. At the brewery, we have a shop, Malthouse Kitchen Cafe, free museum and meeting rooms. We have 36 pubs that are at the heart of many of local communities, serving great drink and food to the region.

Whilst we do dedicate our lives to brewing the best quality ale, we have a whole host of other reasons to pop in for a visit.

Brewery Tours
Brewery tours start from the Visitors Centre and last approximately 2 hours. The first 1½ hours are spent around the brewery where you’ll see their original steam engine, learn about their history and how they make their range of delicious beers. After a tour of the stables, if they are in residence you’ll be able to see the lovely Shire Horses who still deliver beer to their local pubs in the traditional way. Upon completion of the tour, it’s back to their sampling bar in the Visitor Centre for a ½ hour beer tasting.
