The name comes from ‘Cock-a Hoop’ which is the act of removing the spigot/cock from the barrel and putting it on the hoop of a cask before drinking. This was then changed to ‘cocker’ to reflect the Brewery’s location, along the river Cocker in Cockermouth, Cumbria.
A renowned pale golden bitter brewed with Jennings well water, Maris Otter Pale malt, and a blend of wheat and oats to create the crisp golden colour and deep head. Goldings hops provide a subtle spicy bitterness and Celeia hops provide a noble floral citrus aroma. First brewed 30 years ago, this classic Golden Ale looks set to become a firm favourite once again.

Bortimot klar med hvitt itt skum. Lukter malt og noe fruktig. Noe tam. Smaker lyst brød og litt frukt.

Creamy white head on a clear amber coloured body.
Malt & pithy aroma.
Medium bodied, very smooth with a cloying back.
Sweet malt, biscuit & berry tastes with a tangy finish.
Nicely balanced.
