Lancaster Brewery earns bevy of accolades

CAMRA has given its seal of approval to The Sun Hotel and Bar in Lancaster, The Mill in Ulverston, The Duke of Edinburgh in Barrow-in-Furness and The Brew House and Tap, based at Lancaster Brewery’s headquarters.

In addition, The Sun Hotel and Bar has been listed in the 2018 Good Pub Guide.

To earn this, qualified cask marque assessors first visit each pub to check the temperature, aroma, appearance and taste of its beers. Phil Simpson, director of Lancaster Brewery, said: “Our success is made up of dozens of people going the extra mile, from the brewers coming in on their days off and holidays to check the fermentation vessels, to the bar staff working an extra hour to clean the glass wash, cellar staff repeatedly cleaning beer lines to ensure they're immaculate, and cellar services engineers dropping everything to fix our ‘slightly-too-warm’ cellar - the list goes on and on."
