We’re incredibly proud to share that Joule’s Brewery has been named a finalist for Best Brewing Pub Company at the Publican Awards 2026.
It’s one of the most respected awards in the pub industry and a real celebration of the people who keep great pubs thriving across the country.
Adding to the excitement, our Managing Director Vicky Colclough has also been shortlisted for Business Leader of the Year, recognising her leadership and the continued growth of Joule’s over recent years.
For us, this recognition belongs to the people behind the bar, in the cellar, and across the brewery who make Joule’s what it is. Our pubs are run by brilliant publicans who create welcoming places at the heart of their communities, serving great beer and bringing people together week after week.
From our brewery in Market Drayton, we continue to brew our beers using pure Shropshire mineral water while carefully restoring and looking after historic pubs across the Midlands and beyond. Each pub has its own story, and it’s the passion of our teams that keeps those stories alive.
To be recognised nationally alongside some of the best operators in the country is a real honour.
The winners will be announced in London on 25 March, and we’re looking forward to celebrating the occasion with the wider pub industry.
Whatever happens on the night, we’re hugely proud of our team and grateful to everyone who supports Joule’s.
