Breweery Tours

Young's have tours quite regularly, and can arrange tours for a suitable party.

Entering the brewery, there is a feel of being in a time warp, as there is a beam engine driving the mash tuns and brewing equipment, and stables with shire horses.

Apparently the horses were used for local dray deliveries in South London, but sadly this practice had to be abandoned because of road rage.
