Brewery tap for Cumbrian Ales, creator of 2011 Champion Golden Ale of Britain: Loweswater Gold, originally brewed in the pub, now in bigger premises near Hawkshead. A short stroll from the waters of Loweswater and Crummock, this 16th century pub has six hand pumps, two seating areas and a reputation for food (It is busy at meal times). Consistent winner and finalist for local CAMRA Branch Pub of the Year since early 2000s
