In 1742, Samuel Whitbread went into partnership with Thomas Shewell, investing \u00a32,600 in two of Shewell’s small breweries, the Goat Brewhouse (where Porter was produced) and a brewhouse in Brick Lane (used to produce pale and amber beers). Demand for the strong, black porter meant the business had to move to larger premises in Chiswell Street in 1750. By 1760, it had become the second largest brewery in London (producing almost 64,000 barrels annually). Five years later (1765), Whitbread bought out Shewell for \u00a330,000. By the end of the century, Whitbread’s business was London’s biggest producer of beer, producing 202,000 barrels in 1796.

The brewery was also one of the first to employ a steam engine (purchasing a sun and planet gear engine, the Whitbread Engine, from James Watt’s company in 1785).<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
