Publisher's Note This history, of an Irish brewery is also a family saga spanning two centuries through the present. The Murphy family, who founded Lady's Well Brewer, was one of Ireland's original "merchant prince" families and made its fortune in importing, tanning, distilling, and brewing. The story of the brewery, its famous stout ale, and its people, gives insight into the economy, society, and culture of Ireland in the 19th and 20th centuries. Major events like the Great Irish Famine and two World Wars form a fascinating backdrop to this story.
