Bridewell Blond

ORIGINAL DRAUGHT BEER

Brewed in Clifden with the pure soft water that the Atlantic weather brings to the Connemara hills, Bridewell Blond is a blond ale with a distinctive all-malt flavour from Pilsner and wheat malts and a balanced noble hop character, a beer influenced by Belgian blond ales
 
Drier and with less alcohol than its Belgian cousins
 
Pairs well with seafood and quite happy to be enjoyed on its own

Back in the day when Guys was a grocers and general store, Guys supplied the provisions to the Lighthouse Keepers on Slyne Head. And the current proprietor's late father was a Lighthouse Keeper on Clare Island

Generator

BRIDEWELL PILSNER

Generator is named after Clifden's hydroelectric station that brought electricity to Clifden in 1925

 

The station was built by Clifden entrepreneur EJ King assisted by engineers from the Marconi station 

 

The hydroelectric plant brought lighting to the town until the 1950's

Did you know that Clifden had electricity before Galway did?

Bridewell Brewery is located overlooking the remains of the hydroelectric station on the Owenglen river
