Indeed, he would later become the town’s mayor and a magistrate for Warwickshire. Enjoying continual growth, Flower’s Brewery was acquired by J. W. Green Ltd of Luton in 1954 and the name changed to Flower’s Breweries Ltd. In 1961 the parent company was absorbed by the expanding Whitbread empire, one of the big six brewers in the UK. Flower’s Brewery was closed in 1968 and production transferred to Whitbread's Cheltenham brewery. Whitbread continues to grow and is now a market leader.
