Lancaster Brewery





Lancaster Brewery is now under the control and management of C2 Investment Ltd (owner of the Sun Hotel).
The brewery has been transformed almost beyond recognition. Changes include:

A new focus of product quality and consistency

New brewing equipment, sampling room, fermentation room, malt store and brewery offices.

New beers including four permanents (Amber, Blonde, Red and Black).

New national and local distribution channels.

New pumpclips and logos.

New management structure.

The new emphasis is on producing superb, consistent beers using 100% natural ingredients. This is beer for the purists, without the addition of hop oils, sugar, malt extract or chemical enhancements.
 

The beers...

Lancaster Amber - 3.7% ABV

“Lancaster Amber is a high quality, session beer. Punching above its weight in flavour, Amber, at 3.7% abv, is a low strength bitter that is dark gold in colour and complements its flavour profile with an abundantly hoppy bouquet allowing the drinker to relish subtle floral and citrus aromas. This is a classic session bitter that is both aromatic and bursting with flavour."
- Subtle floral and citrus aromas


Lancaster Blonde - 4.1% ABV
“Lancaster Blonde is a uniquely vivid golden bitter. Blonde has been designed to offer a quality cask conditioned ale to drinkers seeking a pale beer with real taste and aromatic impact. This most stylish and contemporary beer is crafted from pale Maris Otter Malt and carefully combined with Germanic style Munich Malt. The slightly citrus and delicate earthy aromas are created by a combination of First Gold and imported Saaz hops. The initial bitterness is followed by a delightful mouth feel culminating with a long dry finish. "

Lancaster Red - 4.9% ABV
“Lancaster Red is a premium strength, ruby red beer, fired by plentiful amounts of Goldings and First Gold hops to give a wonderfully spicy but sweet fragrance. Using a blend of Maris Otter, Crystal and Dark Crystal malts, Red offers a robust malt-dominated body finished with a splendid bitter note. Red is an impact bitter designed to leave a lasting impression both visually and on the taste buds."
- Robust ale with a malt dominated body


Lancaster Dark - 3.5% ABV - Seasonal
“Lancaster Dark is a traditional dark mild with the flavour evolving from oven roasted Maris Otter and Crystal malts. Lancaster Dark is sparingly hopped with First Gold and Goldings hops introducing subtle flavours and aromas whilst complementing a full, well-rounded body. At Just 3.5% abv, Dark is a session mild that offers a complicated palate of taste and aromas."
- Seriously quaffable and superbly More-ish
