Local brews at new Bristol Airport bar
14.10.08
Bristol Airport is to begin serving local beers and ciders at its new bar. A partnership between the airport, SSP UK and Butcombe Brewery will see the recently rebranded Zero9 bar serve drinks including Butcombe Bitter, Cold-Filtered Blond and Ashton Press Cider.
The airport's new bar is located on the mezzanine level overlooking the departure lounge with views over the airfield. The change is part of the airport's 'sense of place' initiative, which encourages the use of services from local suppliers to showcase the best of south-west England to visitors.
Nagesh Shikram, SSP UK bar manager at Bristol Airport, said: 'Being able to enjoy a pint of Butcombe while relaxing before a flight is another point of difference for Bristol International compared to airports outside the region.'
Guy Newell, managing director of Butcombe Brewery, added: 'Having our beer and cider stocked at the airport is a great opportunity to win new converts, as well as meaning loyal customers can enjoy their favourite pint each time they fly.'
