Lady's Well Brewery is Heineken Ireland's sole remaining brewing site, located on Leitrim Street in Cork. Established in 1856 by James J. Murphy and his brothers on the grounds of the former Cork Foundling Hospital, the brewery was named after the holy well on the hill opposite. Since 2009 it also produces Beamish Irish Stout, which was moved here when the neighbouring Beamish and Crawford brewery on South Main Street closed after 217 years of continuous brewing. Both stouts — Murphy's Irish Stout and Beamish Irish Stout — are today brewed side by side on the same premises, alongside Murphy's Irish Red.
