John Fitzgerald (brewer)

John Fitzgerald was a prominent Irish brewer in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. He is primarily known for establishing and developing the Tivoli Brewery in Cork, Ireland.

Fitzgerald's Tivoli Brewery, founded in the late 1700s, became one of the largest and most successful breweries in the Munster region. He employed innovative brewing techniques and invested heavily in expanding the brewery's capacity, contributing significantly to the industrial landscape of Cork during that period. The brewery's success helped establish Cork as a major brewing center in Ireland.

Little is documented about his personal life beyond his business ventures. However, his impact on the brewing industry in Ireland and his legacy as a successful entrepreneur are well-recognized. The Tivoli Brewery continued to operate under various ownerships after Fitzgerald's tenure, maintaining its prominence for many years. His contributions to the economic development of Cork are also noted in historical records.
