Brakspear Brewery
WH Brakspear & Sons Ltd was a brewery in Henley on Thames, Oxfordshire. Its beers are now brewed by Wychwood Brewery.
==History==
In 1711, W.H. Brakspear bought a brewery on Bell Street, Henley. The Brakspear family was distantly related to Nicholas Breakspear, who became Pope Adrian IV in 1154 — the only Englishman to become Pope. In 1812, the brewery moved to a Thames-side location on New Street.
In 2002, W.H. Brakspear & Sons licensed the brewing of their beers to Refresh UK, owner of Wychwood Brewery, and the brewery ceased production and closed. The site was sold and part of it converted to a Hotel du Vin boutique hotel.
The now non-brewing Brakspear Pub Company and its estate of 145 pubs was bought in 2006 by pub chain JT Davies for £106 million.〔(Morning Advertiser )〕 After being brewed at Burtonwood, Cheshire, production of Brakspear beers was moved, along with some of the historic Henley brewing vessels, to Refresh's Wychwood Brewery in Witney, Oxfordshire. Refresh UK was subsequently bought out by Marston's.〔(Morning Advertiser )〕 reportedly for c.£10-11 million.
