Regulars -Lakeland Bitter 3.8%

An old favourite of many, Bitter was crafted years ago, when the Bitter End was in it's infancy.

Mike worked with long time stalwart of brewing and breweries, David Smith now of the York Brewery, to create a beer which would slake the raging thirst which was gripping the town of Cockermouth. Bitter was born, known to many as Cockermouth Pride for some years, the recipie has remained essentially unchanged, maybe gaining a little malt characher, or becomming a little more hoppy as each years crop of Barley, and years hop harvest yield their fruits.
Long may it provide refreshment for the tired and thirsty, a toast to David and Mike!
