Wrexham Lager Brewery
The original office buildings (1883) are all that’s left of the brewery.
The round turret and the decorated half timbering look like buildings in Bavaria,
the home area of the founders and early staff.
They picked Wrexham because it had good rail links, excellent water, and deep cellars
could easily be dug for cooling, essential in the process of lager brewing.
Two railway branch lines came right up to the buildings; one for coal, and the
other for the barley etc. which would then start a complex automated journey
through the 5 storey factory.
Wrexham lager was served on the Titanic and other White Star Line ships,
and was drunk by British soldiers at the siege of Khartoum.
