This bar and bottle shop opened in 2020 in the Burscough wharf complex, making a welcome addition to the thriving real ale scene in Burscough. A tastefully decorated modern bar with five cask lines, ten keg lines and real cider as well as a full range of wine and spirits. The bottle and can stock that was previously housed and sold from Beer Haul is now within the pub. It has a rotational stock of Belgian ales, ciders, pale ales, dark beers, sours, gluten free and alcohol free products.
