Tollgate Brewery blends time-honoured brewing methods with a modern approach to flavour, producing characterful ales designed for today’s drinkers.
Founded in 2005 on the historic Woodville site of Brunt, Bucknall & Co. — once known as the Wooden Box Brewery — Tollgate marked the return of brewing to Burton after more than 170 years. The brewery takes its name from the famous toll booth that once stood between Ashby-de-la-Zouch and Burton-upon-Trent, a landmark that gave the area its enduring name.
In 2012, Tollgate Brewery relocated to the National Trust’s Calke Abbey Estate as part of the Estate’s initiative to bring brewing back to the site. Following new ownership in 2016, the brewery continues to operate from a restored nineteenth-century farm building, running a traditional six-barrel brewhouse that respects its heritage while producing beers with contemporary appeal.
