The story of Cain's, like the story of Liverpool, is one of
passion, ambition, and graft. It takes in immigration, global
trade, terrible poverty, and vast wealth. In just two generations,
the Cain family went from the slums of Irish Liverpool to a seat in
the House of Lords. As the city grew, so did the brewery, and as
the city struggled, so Cain's fought for survival. At the height of
Liverpool's fortunes, Robert Cain owned 200 public houses across
Merseyside, including the world famous Philharmonic Dining Rooms
-'The Phil' - which he built. City and brewery have shared the
highs and lows of recent Liverpool history and the remarkable
revival of Cain's by another immigrant family, the Dusanjs, in the
twenty-first century is matched by the city's own recovery and
reinvention. Here, then, is the story of Liverpool in a pint.
