The Brunswick is owned by Everards, while the on-site brewery is managed separately. A wide range of regular beers can be expected, plus White Feather, Triple Hop, Second Brew, Railway Porter from Brunswick. The building is part of the original Midland Railway Village, threatened with clearance in the 1970s and saved as part of the 'Railway Conservation Area' in the 1980s. It reopened as a real ale pub in 1987 after much restoration, with the addition of the brewery in 1991. There are sixteen handpumps on the bar counter in total in banks of 6, 5 & 5. The units were manufactured by CFBS (Colin Farrar Brewery Services of Keighley).

Home fans only on match days.

Winner of the Derby CAMRA pub of the Year 2016 and 2017.
