Joule’s Brewery is raising a glass to 15 years of brewing in Market Drayton with a thank you as special as the milestone itself.

To celebrate, every Joule’s licensee will receive a free barrel of new Crystal Anniversary Ale.
That’s 100 free half-pints for each Joule’s Taphouse, poured on a first-come, first-served basis. This is the brewer’s way of saying thank you to the communities, regulars, and teams who have supported them over the past decade and a half.
Crystal Anniversary Ale is a rich golden amber beer that showcases the depth of crystal malt, with smooth biscuit and toffee sweetness, gentle earthy hops, and a soft marmalade finish. Bright, clear, and well balanced at 4.5% ABV, it’s a heritage pale ale designed to have broad appeal.
The anniversary coincides with the full opening of The Red Lion Brewery Tap, in Market Drayton. Joule’s historic home has been lovingly restored over the past year, with both the Red Lion and The Stag now welcoming guests in their full glory.
The Red Lion remains the beating heart of the brewery, a proper pub for food, Sunday roasts, and excellent beer, while The Stag offers the perfect setting for events, celebrations, and live music.
“Reaching 15 years feels like a real landmark for us,” said Georgia Charlton-Briggs, brand manager at Joule’s Brewery. “We’ve built our pubs around the idea that a good pint and a warm welcome should always go hand in hand.
“This is our way of raising a glass to everyone who’s joined us on the journey so far, and to invite more people to discover what Joule’s is all about.”
