Oldershaw Beers started up in 1996 (as Oldershaw Brewery) by Gary and Diane Oldershaw; Kathy and Tim Britton took over in the summer of 2010. It was, and remains, a family business with the brewery standing adjacent to the family home in Harrowby, just outside Grantham. From the start the brewery has grown steadily, expanding the range of beer, the brewing plant and the brew-house itself. We now produce about 42,000 gallons of real beer a year (that's more than 250,000 pints) and have created more than 50 different beers since we started. Our craft brewers use traditional brewing methods, techniques that can be traced back for centuries, employing open-top fermenters mashing in by hand and racking off each cask individually to brew for you, the very best beer that we can. And you don't have to take our word for it, our beer has won many awards over the years from both CAMRA and SIBA. The brewery itself is a nine barrel plant (324 gallons per brew). We have three fermenting tanks and generally three brews are produced each week. We currently have a range of 12 regular beers, including lighter, lager style beers; hoppy, flavourful, golden ales as well as more traditional darker beers and stouts. We also create special one-off beers and seasonal brews.
