The nearest brewery to me is Rowton Brewery, about a five minute walk. They rent the pub attached as their taphouse, but have just bought the pub at the end our road which is a one minute walk! This will complement the taphouse not replace it.
A bit further afield is Battlefield in Shrewsbury, Joules in Market Drayton both excellent.
I do miss living in the black country when it comes to breweries: Holdens, Bathams, Ma Pardoes...

This is one of the many positives of living in Yorkshire.
Nearest is Sam Smiths/John Smiths/Coors for the large breweries. First of the Independent breweries is 5 minutes away in the car (Wetherby Brewery)

My father in law used to work for Thwaites,
started out as a drey man and ended up managing the refits of many of their best pubs.
Used to love a pint of Thwaites best bitter when we visited.
Might be something to do with the amazing water in the town( compared to the hard limescaley stuff here down south ).

I can’t get the map in the OP to work.
I have Mor Brewing which is about 200 yards from my parents’ old house but maybe 2-3 miles from where I live and similar to where they live now.
71 Brewing are about 5 miles from me, and about half a mile from my work (if I ever get back into the office) which is handy because they have a good bottle shop.
Redcastle Brewing, who are more known for their gin than their beer these days, are about 10 miles away in the opposite direction from 71.

That would explain it, I didn’t even think to look at the date.
Im quite spoilt...
Tring brewery- pre lockdown you could pop in for a chat and they do takeaway from bottles to kegs and have sampling taps to help yourself and try before you buy, good beers
Vale Brewery- tried some of their brews on taps in pubs, not really to my taste
Chiltern Brewery- sampled what I believe was all of their brews available (at the time) on tap during an afternoon session, middling
Leighton Buzzard Brewing company- not had the pleasure
Aylesbury Brewhouse- again not tried their beers
XT Brewing Co- sampled a couple of their brews and enjoyed them
Haresfoot Brewery- not sampled
Rebellion- few gooduns I have tried as both takeaway kegged and on tap
Malt the Brewery- not tried
It seems like there also are a good few more within 30mins of me that I wasnt even aware of which tells me I have some exploring of ranges to do whilst I wait for mine to condition!

Going by the Scottish standard of distance measured in minutes by car, Tryst - 2 minutes
Hybrid - 12 minutes
William Bros - 13 minutes
Harviestoun - As above
Edinburgh and Glasgow not too far away but only really mentioning ones that I'd consider to be local to me.
Google maps also reveals Slopemeister who are 5 mins away but I have never heard of them. Will maybe check out their product

You're not that far from me.
There is a small brewery in Bicester called The Wriggly Monkey. Their beers are a bit too hoppy for my liking, but me, the Mrs and the folks next door pop up when we can. And if you like cars they are based on the Bicester Heritage site. The chief there is a proper petrol head.
The Angel in Bicester also has a brewery tacked on to the back, but I'm not really sure how much they brew and when. We like the Angel for a pint though.
