🌾🍺 THINGS ARE GETTING A LITTLE WILD AT WALTER’S… 🍺🌾

We’re pretty chuffed to tell you that Walter’s has been specially selected by Hawkstone as one of a limited number of bars across the country to pour their brand-new, limited-edition WILDTHING L***r! 🙌

Created by Hawkstone x Wildfarmed, Wildthing is brewed using regeneratively farmed British barley — celebrating British farming, the countryside and a better way of looking after the land. 🌾🚜

And now it’s made its way to Alston!

🍺 Hawkstone Wildthing L***r – 4.6%
🌾 Limited Edition
🇬🇧 British barley
📍 Pouring on draught at Walter’s
⏳ When it’s gone, it’s gone!

Hawkstone themselves say Wildthing is only landing in selected pubs around the country, so we’re delighted that our little bar at the top of the town has been chosen to be one of them. 💛

Wildthing has escaped into the wild… and it’s landed at Walter’s. 🌾🍺

Come and try a pint while you can!
