Description

Based in the heart of the English Lake District, brewers of bold, innovative beers since 2002, our beer range is eclectic and includes thirst quenching session beers, big hopped pale ales, deep dark stouts and sours. With a range of core beers, available in Cask, Keg, Bottle and Can.

At Hawkshead Brewery we make the sort of beer we like to drink - distinctive, full of flavour, handmade, and perfectly crafted. We are small enough to know most of our customers, not to care about the mass market, be able to brew lots of different beers, experiment and innovate. We are big enough to employ a team of five brewers, make around 140 barrels (23,000 litres) of beer a week, deliver direct throughout The North, and our Tap at our Staveley site is open every day.

In about 2017, a controlling interest in the company was taken by Liverpool-based Halewood Wines & Spirits, and this may result in further expansion.

330ml can from Tesco - Clear amber body, frothy top. Nose has some dry stone fruit notes, peach, nectarine and a back of pineapple. Taste is citrus, sweetened lime, and pithy rind. Nice enough, but not a stunner.

24/4/2021. Bottle shared with D&J at the welcome to Eva beer share. From Tebay Services. Pours clear amber/copper with a small frothy off-white head. Very nice looking beer. Aroma of malt, bread, berries, nut, dark fruits. Medium sweetness, moderate bitterness and body. Slight oily watery texture, average carbonation. Quite enjoyed it other than it being a little thin.

Flaska från SB. Klar bärnstensfärgad vätska med lågt skum. Rostade nötter, karamell, syltad citrus, blommor. Torr och maltig. Medelstor kropp, smak som doften. Inte jättetypsikt brittisk ändå finns bitarna där med en snygg djup och torr maltprofil, lätt blommig humle med lite minrealer i bakgrunden. Trevlig
