Alexander Gordon (1818–1895) was a Scottish brewer and philanthropist. He was born in Glen Girnock, Aberdeenshire and studied an apprenticeship in Dundee. Shortly after turning 18 Gordon was placed in charge of a brewery in Aberdeen and later worked at the Lochnagar distillery. He moved to London and founded the Messrs. Gordons Brewery in Islington in 1852. Gordon opened a second brewery in Peckham and grew wealthy before his retirement in 1891. Gordon donated money to improve Ballater, a village near his birthplace. His donations enabled the erection of a church, two halls and the Polhollick bridge. Gordon had no children and his estate paid to construct the Cambus O' May bridge after his death.
