Airport bar features local brews
14.10.08
A new bar at Bristol Airport is to begin serving local beers and ciders. The partnership between the airport, SSP UK and Butcombe Brewery will see the recently rebranded Zero9 bar serve local brews including Butcombe Bitter, Cold-Filtered Blond and Ashton Press Cider.
The airport's new bar is located on the mezzanine floor overlooking the departure lounge and with views over the airfield. The introduction of local brews 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 bar manager at Bristol Airport, said: 'Being able to enjoy a pint of Butcombe while relaxing before a flight is another point of difference between Bristol International and 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 our loyal customers can enjoy their favourite pint before they fly.'
