St Fagans National Museum of History is looking for a brewery to supply a beloved Cardiff pub that is being rebuilt there. The Vulcan Hotel, which once stood on Adam Street near the city centre, is currently being reconstructed in the museum grounds after it was dismantled in 2012.
Work to rebuild the old Victorian boozer, which opened in 1853, started in 2020 and it is set to open to the public in 2024 - functioning as a real pub where people will be able to go for a drink. Now Amgueddfa Cymru, the Welsh Government-sponsored charity which is comprised of seven national museums including St Fagans, says it's looking for a brewery to "create and supply a bespoke range of draught and bottled beers" to be sold at the pub when it opens.
Publishing a notice for a supplier earlier this month, it invited breweries to be "part of The Vulcan's story" in a tweet. It added that the beers will be sold alongside a wider retail range and across the gift shops and online stores of its seven museums.
