Great White 4.2% ABV

The latest beer to be brewed by us, Great White is a single hop blonde, smooth and rounded with slight citrus overtones. Very easy drinking, you'll be tempted to think you're going to need a bigger glass.  Perfect answer to the question 'What's Jaws?'

Red Man 4.2% ABV

Collier's Clog 5.5% ABV

Honouring Burnley's mining heritage, Collier's Clog is a strong pale ale. This lightly bittered beer has an excellent balanced body with a citrus aftertaste. This beer has a character of its own, and, as in any encounter with a collier's clog- beware of the kick!
