If you’ve spent the day walking around Keswick, you’ll know how good that first pint tastes when you finally sit down! 🍻🥾

Muddy boots, tired legs and plenty of stories from the day. Come and get yourselves warmed up and see what’s on the pumps.

We’re pretty lucky with the breweries we’ve got here in Cumbria! 🍺

From familiar favourites to smaller breweries you might not have tried before, we always enjoy getting a good mix of local ales onto our pumps. With plenty ales on the bar and the selection changing regularly, there’s usually something new to discover. What’s the best Cumbrian pint you’ve had recently?

It’s definitely getting to that time of year when pub and a pint sound better! 🍂🍻

If you’re out and about in Keswick, come and get yourself out of the cold and join us for a drink. We’ve always got a changing selection of ales on the bar, including some brilliant local brews.🍺

Yet another one to look out for on the pumps! 🍺

Ruby from Crooked River Brewing Co. is a 4.8% red ale, and a great addition to our changing selection of real ales. If you’re a fan of red ales, this might be one to try next time you’re in!

Another Cumbrian ale for you to try at The Wainwright! 🍺

Broonale from Carlisle Brewing Co. is a 4.2% ale, brewed just up the road in Carlisle. We always enjoy getting different local beers onto our pumps, and this is another one to look out for next time you’re in.

Who’s giving this one a try? 🍻

It’s almost cosy pub season! 🍂🍻

With the colder days creeping in along with the winter sun, there’s nothing quite like heading into your favourite pub, getting out of the cold and enjoying a good pint. The colder months are definitely made better with a visit to the pub! 🍺

A few more local ales heading to our pumps this week! 🍻

We’ve got Jennings World’s Biggest Liar (4.3%), a limited-edition deep golden turnip ale, alongside Gan Yam Brewing’s BIT Bitter (3.8%), brewed just down the road in Kendal. And for those who’ve been asking, Jennings Green Hop is back on too! 🍺

Which one will you be trying first?

A huge congratulations to this wonderful family and of course to little Navy, who has completed all 214 Wainwrights at just 3 years old! ⛰️

What an incredible achievement at such a young age! We had the pleasure of welcoming Navy and his family to The Wainwright and it was lovely to meet them all and hear about their adventures.

Such a brilliant achievement for the whole family and one they’ll be able to look back on for years to come. A massive well done from all of us at The Wainwright! ❤️
