Core range
Blonde

3.8% ABV A fruity, golden beer with a heavy burst of floral hop aroma and a satisfying clean bitterness. Blonde was first brewed as a summer ‘special’, but it proved so popular that it is now one of our permanent products. A blonde for bitter drinkers, it’s our best-seller.
Wild Ennerdale

4.2% ABV Wild Ennerdale is a golden amber coloured real ale, well-hopped with two varieties of English grown hops, yielding a good hop aroma and well rounded bitterness. We are very proud to brew this beer in association with The Wild Ennerdale Partnership.
Darkest

4.2% ABV A dark bitter, it is a more potent brew than our other beers, but it remains remarkably quaffable. With a rich, velvety texture, a definite chocolate flavour and a creamy head, this beer has converted hundreds of ‘light beer’ drinkers to the dark side. Darkest is now also available in bottles as well as cask, so you can enjoy anytime, anywhere!
Seven Bridges

5.0% ABV Seven Bridges is very pale beer brewed with German hops in the style of a traditional beer from Cologne, but as a Real ale. A gently fruity beer with a delicate bitterness from the Noble hops used, it is our premium craft larger!

Honey

4.5% ABV a smooth golden beer, brewed with local, Cumbrian honey to give a subtle, sweet flavour.
Pale

4.0% ABV A light, refreshing taste balanced perfectly with fresh fruity notes to offer a light coloured, thirst-quenching ale.
Red

3.8% ABV Red is made with French Barbe-Rouge (Red Beard) hops, which give the beer the subtle taste of red berries such as strawberry & cherry. The colour comes from our use of amber malt and roast barley, giving it a red hue along with a gentle biscuity, roasted flavour.
Reserve

5.2% ABV A special strong ale brewed as traditional beers were in country houses hundreds of years ago, when the gentry would have a bakery and a brewery to sustain the extended family living there. This is a beer for drinking at the dining table with the main meal of the day – to be savoured.
Brewed using Sovereign and Golding hops for a spicy bitterness and oaked in the fermenter to recreate a taste of beer from the country house’s barrels in the stone cellar.
John Dalton

4.0% ABV John Dalton Stout is a stout with lots of roast malt, coffee and chocolate flavours from the use of plenty of chocolate malt, roasted barley and dark crystal malt. Brewed in honour of the famous chemist John Dalton from Cumbria
English Pride

4.0% ABV In honour of great sporting events, we created this seasonal cask ale. English Pride is deep golden brown in colour, with a hoppy aroma and a zesty flavour – a great clean finish! Call us to order your supplies for your sport loving real ale fans.
As The Clocks Go Back

4.2% ABV An intense dark and full bodied beer with a unique chocolate, caramel and smoked flavour.
Harbour Master

5.0% ABV This beer is inspired by the classic first wave of American IPAs that were made with hops native to the west coast of the States. Cascade & Chinook hops in abundance give a grapefruit-citrus flavour that dominates the palate. There is plenty of malt body balanced by a pronounced bitterness & at 5.0% alcohol gives quite a punch.
