<br />
Walter Showell was born in Birmingham in 1832, where he spent his formative years with his aunt at Ashted Row. He started his career as a trainee chemist and moved to Oldbury, where he joined Charles Tonge as an apprentice at his chemist's shop in Birmingham Street. In 1854, he met and married Sarah Harthill, the daughter of a master miller, which led to a career change. With his background as a chemist, he began collaborating with his father-in-law, Joseph Harthill, in his malting business. With his financial backing, he soon established the small Victoria Brewery in Simpson Street, Oldbury, not far from the Dog & Pheasant. Walter's beer recipes were popular with local drinkers and the business expanded.<br />
<br />
During this period, he bought a large piece of land next to the Great Western Railway line in Crosswells Street, Langley Green, including Crosswells Springs, which early monks had called the 'Wells of the Cross'. In 1874, he constructed his new Crosswells Brewery here, which was such a success that in 1881 he built a new maltings at Langley, next to the Titford Canal and railway. A second 90-quarter brewery was added in 1884 with further extensions a year later. The brewery had its own company band, fire brigade and fire engine. In 1884, the company was formally registered and in 1887, Walter handed over control to his son, Charles.<br />
<br />
The beers from Crosswells Brewery were advertised as "ales brewed from the choicest malt and hops, and the purest water in existence, have so won their way into popular favour that the Crosswells has become a household word". There was a good range of "palatable, wholesome and invigorating beers", including fine and superior dinner ales, table beer, mild, bitter and pale ales, brown stout and porter, best and strong old ale. The nearest tied house to the brewery was the Crosswells Inn in Station Road, Langley, previously kept by local agent, William Smith, and acquired in 1890.<br />
<br />
The company expanded its outlets to supply beer to the Black Country and Birmingham, and in 1889 acquired Taylor's Hockley Brewery, adding another 40 tied houses in Birmingham. A year later, they acquired Sarah Marsland's Brookfield Brewery in Stockport, but this exposed the company to some risk in supplying beers to more remote locations.<br />
<br />
In 1894, Showell's acquired the Brewers Investment Corporation, which doubled the number of pubs owned in Birmingham and moved the head offices to Great Charles Street in Birmingham. The canal between Langley and Birmingham provided an efficient transport link between the brewery and a new distribution warehouse based at Crescent Wharf, off Broad Street, where 6,000 casks of ale could be stored. By 1896, they also had a brewery at Ely in Cardiff, but had to sell the Stockport Brewery for £250,000 due to a financial crisis. <br />
<br />
Further acquisitions in London and the South-West proved to be rather ambitious, which along with the downturn in the country's economy, led to the decline of the company.<br />
<br />
In 1898, their London pubs were bought by Reffell's Bexley Brewery, with a series of financial difficulties and prosecution.<br />
By 1900, Showell's were widening their markets again, supplying beer and stout to the Egyptian army of the Khedive, delivering 15,000 barrels of beer a year. At the shareholders' AGM in the same year, it was reported that the company was in good health, paying 15% dividends over the last four years and with annual net profits of over £92,000 (equivalent to over £12.1m in today's money). Around this time, Harry Twyford was one of the main directors of the company. By the end of the Victorian Age, Showell's had developed into a large regional brewery with a tied estate of almost 200 pubs.<br />
<br />
In 1901, Walter Showell passed away at Stourton Hall, the family home near Kinver, aged 68, leaving a wife and daughter. At that time, he was a household name in Oldbury, as one who did much for the people among whom he lived and worked. He had taken a prominent part in public life, becoming chairman of the Local Public Health Board and Board of Guardians. He had built a small church in Rounds Green, contributed to the cost of the new parish church at Langley and the repair of the chancel at Kinver church. He also helped to establish the Hospital Saturday Movement in Oldbury. He also travelled widely, and was one of the first to ascend Mount Blanc. In 1885, he had stood unsuccessfully as a candidate for parliament and, at the time of his death, was an Alderman on Worcestershire County Council.<br />
<br />
By 1912, the company was feeling the pinch, with declining profits of barely £9,500, mostly associated with the high cost of brewing materials. In 1914, his sons sold the company to Samuel Allsopp & Sons (Burton-upon-Trent), along with its 194 pubs and 30 off-licences. At the final shareholders' meeting the accounts showed an apparent turn-round in profits, recorded as £65,224.<br />
<br />
The brewing plant was put up for sale in 1918, and the Crosswells Brewery closed shortly afterwards. Samuel Allsopp leased all the pubs to Ind Coope & Allsopp, who used the brewery as a depot, and by 1961, had become part of Allied Breweries and later part of Carlsberg-Tetley.<br />
<br />
Although most of the brewery buildings were demolished, some remain as part of Alcohols Ltd, a distilling company making Langley gin! In 1944, Langley Maltings was sold to Wolverhampton & Dudley Breweries and until 2006 was one of the few remaining traditional floor maltings. Listed as an historic building (Grade II), it remains a prominent canalside feature, but was seriously damaged by fire in 2009 and is on the top of the Victorian Society's list of endangered buildings. Incidentally the Titford Canal is the highest point on the UK system at 511 feet above sea level.<br />
<br />
So, although Showell's Crosswells Brewery has long gone, many of the company's pubs remain, often with some original features of the brewery and still serving an excellent pint of beer.<br />

'''<big>Geoff Dye</big>'''<br />
<br />
'''The longest living microbrewery in Great Britain.'''<br />
<br />
The story of Ringwood Brewery starts in the early part of the 1970s, a different time from now when the market in beer and pubs was heavily dominated by a few very large breweries and getting on for a hundred smaller regional and local breweries that had been operating over the early part of the 20th Century. Microbreweries had not been invented and pub breweries consisted of a few home brew pubs, leftovers from a once vast local publican brewing industry.<br />
The founder of Ringwood, Peter Austen was previously Head Brewer at Hull Brewery and when Northern Foods took over in 1975. He decided that he did not like the way the new company was going and decided to ‘retire’. He moved to Hampshire to open a sea fishing business which was also a hobby of his. This business was not successful but in 1977 he heard that Terry Jones of Monty Python fame and Richard Boston who was a beer writer for The Guardian newspaper were looking for help in setting up the first new microbrewery near Kingston in Herefordshire at a medieval manor called Penrhos Court, he jumped at the opportunity to assist.<br />
<br />
Inspired by the initial success in 1978 he decided to set up his own 15 barrel brewery near his home in Minty’s Yard on New Street in Ringwood, Hampshire originally part of an old bakery. The basic plant was a scaled down version of a traditional brewery. A hot liquor back, a mill, mash tun, copper and a few small fermenting vessels. The location and time were excellent. Surrounded by the New Forest and a brewery nearby at Romsey that had been taken over by Whitbread some nine years earlier (Strongs of Romsey) that was selling off small pubs that were unprofitable as free houses. This gave Peter an ideal opportunity to sell his beer in the small pubs which often sold beer from stillages behind the bar. Whitbread had at the time dropped all the old Strongs beers and only produced a cask Trophy and a cask dark Mild both of rather bland quality. The yeast he used was brought down from Hull brewery and was an original Yorkshire strain from Ramsden Brewery in Halifax that was used to Yorkshire Squares and hence needed constant rousing in traditional vessels. He started his new brewery with business partner David Welsh. Peter did most of the brewing whilst David concentrated on sales. Peter also became interested in helping other people throughout Great Britain set up small breweries and later the rest of the world and was also responsible for writing to the Government price secretary suggesting that a sliding scale of duty should be implemented. When David Bruce contacted him regarding setting up miniature basement brewing kits for his Firkin Pubs it was Austin who vetted the design. In 1980 he was the driving force of the setting up of The Small Independent Brewers Association (SIBA) to rival the existing Brewers Society who tended to represent mainly the family and regional breweries of which there were still quite a few. Within a space of ten years, he had also set up a consultancy business and had helped some 40 small new breweries establish themselves. These included Butcombe which is still brewing today. <br />
<br />
Originally only one beer was produced, Ringwood Bitter at 1040o but within three years he was producing Blackjack Porter, Fortyniner and Old Thumper, the latter at 1060o and was dealing with some 40 free trade accounts in the south of England. By 1985 this had increased to 90 accounts and the company had three tied houses. The existing premises were becoming too small for the needs of the company. His consultancy company was also taking off when in 1986 he established a 500-barrel plant at the Mopa brewery in Nigeria as well as several local breweries in China. He also established over 75 breweries in the USA using ‘the Original Peter Austin Brick Kettle Brewing System’. In 1988 he decided to retire at the age of 67 and left the brewery selling his shares in 1990 to partners David and his brother landscape architect Nigel Welsh who had joined in 1980.<br />
<br />
At this time the brewery gained one of the most prestigious awards possible when Old Thumper was voted Champion Beer of Great Britain in 1988. The following year was the time of the beer orders in 1989 and the company gained a great deal of trade from the success of Old Thumper the year before as large breweries took the ale as a guest beer, it was even supplied to the Channel Islands. By that time the brewery had some 40 plus work force. The company also sponsored the New Forest Show and even had their own horses and dray for publicity purposes. Extra public houses were acquired making six pubs all close to the brewery.<br />
<br />
In 1994 the new brewhouse of 120 barrel length, some Peter Austin at his Ringwood 350/400 barrels per week opened on a site 200 yards Brewery in 199924down the road formerly part of Stephen Tunks brewery which had closed in 1824. It had sufficient capacity to increase that to 700 barrels a week. Production of Best Bitter was 70% of the total produced. It had cost around £250.000 with further spends over the next few years on a new boiler, yeast tanks and a cleaning in place system purchased from Johnson and Johnson the baby products company as well as an adaption to the racking plant. The new brewery was a traditional brewhouse consisting of mash tun, copper and whirlpool enabling a very flexible plant that could push through short runs of 40 barrel for Old Thumper without any partigyling and used floor malted Maris Otter barley supplied by Tuckers and by Simpsons. The company was able to use pelleted hops which were separated in the whirlpool and had been lucky in purchasing four second hand enclosed stainless steel fermenting vessels and four open vessels from the old Julia Hanson brewery that had closed in Dudley. The Blackjack/Porter mild was not a success so four seasonal brews were brought in to replace it with the XXXX Porter available during the winter months proving very popular. In 1997 Rod Williams was appointed as Head Brewer and later in the year the Fayolle vineyard in Bergerac Southwest France was purchased to supply quality wines to their houses and customers. Some 3,000 cases of wine were sold annually and exported to a company in America which Peter Austin had helped set up in 1994 owned by Alan Pugsley called D. L. Geary Brewing Company in Portland, Maine. He had also given permission for them to brew Old Thumper under licence. By 2003 which was the 25th anniversary of the company they supplied some 600 accounts in the UK. The brewery shop on site doubled as a visitor centre and sold a considerable amount of beer a year straight from the cask as well as full casks and bottles. A major new development took place in 2005/6 which saw the addition of seven new conditioning tanks. <br />
<br />
Suddenly in 2007 Ringwood brewery was purchased by Marston’s PLC for £19.2 million at the height of production around 42,000 barrels per year, but with plans to increase to 50,000 barrels by 2010. Some 750 outlets were supplied, and seven pubs owned. After purchase, production of bottled beers moved to Burton whilst the seasonal ales were discontinued. Peter Austin died on the 1st January 2014 at the age of 92. The brewery was now only small cog in a large operation and when in May 2020 the whole of Marston’s brewing empire was sold to Carlsberg an even smaller cog! <br />
<br />
The new company sold its Bedford brewery, previously Wells and Youngs, and both Jennings brewery and Wychwood brewery closed. Then the inevitable happened, after a massive fall in sales of 75% at Ringwood following the Covid, the brewery was put up for sale on the 7th June 2023. This appeared to be something of a lifeline for the brewery as a consortium led by Anthony Swift was interested in taking over the brands and brewery saving 14 jobs and was planning to employ a further 21 persons. They approached Carlsberg Marston’s Brewing Co but their offer and plans were apparently not even discussed. By late 2023 the distribution of beers had now moved to depots elsewhere and there were only eight staff left in the brewery. The very popular brewery tours had been discontinued and it was obvious that the brewery and brands did not fit in with the new company’s operation. As at the end of December 2023 the brewery awaits the same fate as the others closed by Carlsberg Marston’s. Hopefully some of the equipment will find homes in other medium size breweries in the UK rather than go for scrap. <br />
<br />
A very sad end to a great company.<br />

<br />
<big>A remembrance by Bruce Awford</big><br />
<br />
I left school in Southampton with moderate A-levels in Maths, Physics and Chemistry and joined Brickwoods as a Pupil Brewer in October 1959. I was 17 years old and not legally allowed to drink alcohol.<br />
<br />
The Head Brewer was John Clubb who served in the Royal Flying Corps in World War I - he came from a brewing family and was 'old school' in that he was rarely seen around the brewery and spent most of his time in his office entertaining and being entertained by Allied Traders most days of the week. He chain-smoked Senior Service and kept a case of Brickwoods Sunshine Bitter (OG 1045) under his desk. More of this later...<br />
<br />
On my first day, I turned up about 8.30am and tentatively knocked on the door of the Brewers' Office, whereupon a voice boomed ‘Come!’ and, on entering, I was greeted by the figure of the redoubtable Pat Heron reclining, feet on desk, studying the Telegraph crossword. He was 'Mashing Brewer' that day and had just had his breakfast of poached eggs on toast supplied by the office lady - 'Jeannie' (wife of the Cellar Foreman). I was given a white coat and taken to observe the third mash of the day. I was immediately addressed as 'Sir' by all in the Brewhouse. I was assigned to the third brewer, Dickie Dutton (20 years my senior), as my mentor.<br />
<br />
As was customary, I spent my first year moving through each department to learn the mysteries of brewing, including bottling and cooperage. The cooper was a rotund gent called Fred Eggington who guided me through assembling a barrel myself - I think it leaked! In December, having joined the Incorporated Brewers' Guild as a Student Member, I attended the Annual Dinner of the London Section at the Criterion Restaurant in Tottenham Court Road wearing my father's dinner jacket and still not of drinking age. A baptism of fire indeed.<br />
<br />
I have mentioned that the Head Brewer kept beer in his office for entertaining Allied Traders such as 'Digger' Knight and his nephew Jonathan Hill, Adrian Palmer, Roy Townsend, John Crisp - too many to name. On the occasional day when he had no visitors, the HB would summon any spare brewer or pupil to drink with him from 11am onwards before proceeding to his favourite pub, the Dolphin on the Hard close to HMS Victory where he would sample and have a 'square meal' which consisted of four Jacobs Cream Crackers covered in Stilton cheese whilst continuing to smoke his Senior Service.<br />
<br />
Christmas time was a revelation as HB's office filled up with gifts from the Allied Trades - thousands of cigarettes of luxury brands, bottles of every type of spirit and boxes of cigars and chocolates. These would be distributed among the staff according to status - I received a packet of Perfectos Finos and Sobranie Cocktail cigarettes - a treat indeed.<br />
<br />
I had a month sojourn during February 1960 at the Maltings in Hove which was a floor malting and damned hard work starting at 6am 'turning the piece'. I celebrated my 18th birthday strolling around Brighton and I was on the pier when it was announced that Prince Andrew was born - whatever happened to him? Back to Portsmouth and my first experience of a 'Brewers' Walk' - namely, accompanying the Head Brewer around the matelots' pubs in dubious areas of Portsmouth to sample the beers. The HB was treated like a god and seemed impervious to the fact that many of the beers were undrinkable. As an aside, reputably, when part of the brewery suffered some bomb damage during WW2, many local people cheered....<br />
<br />
Quality Control in the brewery at that time involved a brewer loading the 'forcing tray' with racking samples each day and examining the sediments with a microscope two weeks later when a myriad of organisms appeared as well as some yeast. Results were duly noted in a book, but no action was ever taken.<br />
<br />
In 1962, the Head Brewer retired and, as Brickwoods had become under the 'Whitbread Umbrella', he was replaced by a Whitbread man, Derek Littleton, who came from Duttons of Blackburn. Things were transformed and a proper laboratory was established under a man from Chiswell Street, none other than the late Peter Ogie. A new language came into being involving words like 'wort agar', O.proteus, Lactobacillus, Brettanomyces etc. The main benefit was a reduction in the number of 'returns' - all of which had to be individually tasted before an 'Excise Destruction' allowed duty reclamation.<br />
<br />
At this time, the public bar price per pint of the beers were stencilled on to the head of the wooden casks - 1/- for Mild, 1/1d for Bitter and 1/3d for Best Bitter. The Brewery basic wage was £8-10s per week. In the autumn of 1960, I had the good fortune to be sponsored by Brickwoods to take a degree in Biochemistry at Manchester College of Science and Technology (later UMIST) followed by a post-graduate year at Heriot-Watt in Edinburgh studying under Professor Preece and tutored by Anna Macleod (who also smoked Senior Service, drank pints, and played golf). I returned to Brickwoods at the end of each term being paid £10 per week, and increased my knowledge considerably as the Whitbread influence was imposed, including the installation of a pure yeast culture plant (installed by Bob Ricketts of Briggs of Burton) and, of course, work study which decimated the workforce and brought the attentions of the T&GWU! A new kegging plant was installed ready for the brewing of the new product - Whitbread Tankard.<br />
<br />
During one of these periods, I had my first visit to Whitbread HQ at Chiswell Street in the City of London where shift brewers were housed in suitable surroundings and attired in smart suits and bowler hats. I was tasked with taking some wort samples from Portsmouth to London by train and having delivered them for the attention of Norman Curtis and the Head Brewer, Bill Lasman, I was invited to the 'Mess' for lunch. I was dressed in sports jacket and grey flannels and a pair of Hush Puppies and, walking in, was regaled by remarks such as, "Good Lord - he's wearing brown shoes...!"<br />
<br />
Having finished my studies in Edinburgh, I returned fulltime to Brickwoods as, so I thought, a fully-fledged Assistant Brewer only to be brought down to earth on my first 'mashing shift' by the foreman who, towards the end of the mash with the tun about to come over the top, took some delight in reminding me that I had left the 'underlet' on!<br />
<br />
During the next three years I studied for the Diploma of the Institute of Brewing with the help of the Whitbread man, Robin Richards, and achieved success in 1967, sitting the exams in IOB Clarges Street along with Tom Dawson, Alastair Macleay, John Duckworth and others. Six papers were completed in three days and lunch breaks were spent in the Samuel Pepys next door. In those days, young brewers were advised to move around to gain experience and I intimated this to the HB who arranged for me to go to 'an audience' at Whitbread Chiswell Street - this time I wore black shoes. Having had my credentials checked, I was told that they were prepared to grant me the honour of being allowed to join them to be 'Whit-washed', as it was known. On having the temerity to ask about the salary, I was told it would be the same as at Brickwoods, which was £1,400 per annum.<br />
<br />
As I was then married with two children, I was less than impressed by the idea of moving to London and, the next month, an advertisement appeared in the Guild Journal for brewers to join the recently formed conglomerate, Bass Charrington (North West) (see [[Bass, Ratcliff & Gretton Ltd]]. I was advised against it, but attended an interview in Manchester, where I negotiated a starting salary of £1,850 and moved to Masseys Burnley Brewery in 1968.<br />
