The Deer’s Head & Bell’s Brewery
Description
The Deer’s Head is Belfast city’s first ever brewpub with a fully functional on-site craft brewery, Bell's Brewery, on full display inside this newly refurbished saloon bar.
Founded by Wine & Spirit Merchant John Donnelly in 1885, The Deer’s Head is the first historical pub in Belfast to be brought back to its original name. Steeped in history and tradition, walk around this iconic building to discover nods of history painted across its walls.
Inside this saloon bar you'll find Bell’s Brewery on full display, where you can observe the entire brewing process, up close and personal, from the comfort of your seat. Unpasteurised, unfiltered beer born and brewed in Belfast. Smell the malt being mashed and the hops being added to the boil on brew days and fully immerse yourself in this new experience in Belfast. With state-of-the-art brewing equipment, these are the only copper Brewiks tanks to be found in Europe!
The origins of Bell’s Brewery date back to 1778, when founder John Bell operated one of the first-known commercial breweries in Belfast and helped kickstart the beer revolution in the city during this time. The team at the Deer’s Head are passionate about reviving what was once the city’s thriving brewery quarter.
With a core range named after old bars of the area, including North Star Lager, Black Bull Stout & Monkey Shaving the Goat IPA, rotating seasonal Bell’s Brewery specials and an unparalleled local craft beer selection, The Deer’s Head is the perfect Belfast city centre destination for any beer enthusiast. With tasting flights available to sample their beers, it’s also the perfect opportunity for anyone wanting to explore the world of craft beer for the first time.
