Grand Canalby ~HerrDrayer

Scraps

In order to provide Dublin with an adequate potable water supply, the Grand Canal was built. It also serves as the water source for the Guinness brewery which is conveniently located bankside.

Ah, thanks for the link, I missed this one.

I assume they treat the water in adequate ways before using it, right?

~HerrDrayer Sep 6, 2010 Hobbyist Photographer

I'd assume some level of treatment is performed, whether by the utility or by the brewery itself, but the brewery would only really need to filter out particulates, as the process of making wort requires vast amounts of boiling.

Ah, I see.

Was just sceptical of water from such an open canal being used to make a beverage, but if the process as such sterlizes it, then it should be no problem.

That seems like a lot of effort to go to. In Tasmania they just built the brewery next to the river.

Cool Picture though

The Liffey's not too far away, but its waters have historically been too dirty for drinking, let alone brewing.

*JolanthusTrel Sep 3, 2010

Ahh, that makes sense then.
