Bowland Brewery Home of award-winning beers and the Bowland Brewers.

From humble beginnings in a milking parlour in 2003 Bowland brewery has sought inspiration from the breath taking scenery and wildlife of the Forest of Bowland – an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Now, the multi award winning beers are brewed in a converted textile mill in the Lancashire market town of Clitheroe. Beers like Hen Harrier, Boxer Blonde and Pheasant Plucker have quickly established themselves among cask ale aficionados – earning the brewery a string of awards.

Cold, crisp and brewed right here in the Ribble Valley. Our Bowland Pilsner is made for easy drinking - whether you’re settling in for the evening or grabbing a bottle to enjoy at home.

And there’s something pretty special about seeing it on the table at the Bowland B**r Hall 👌

It's a long one but a good one, stick with us. When we received this message from Joe we couldn't help but share. This is what it's all about 🍻

"Hello, I attended a wedding yesterday and for obvious reasons I was at the bar ordering some drinks for family members and out of the corner of my eye I spotted a can of your Bowland black gluten free stout, as someone who is both gluten and dairy free due to medical reasons I've missed a certain famous black stout for around 10 years now, so I've looked for a decent substitute. So when I saw your offering I ordered, reluctantly hoping for something palatable. WOW was I in for a shock, your drink was so good I must've looked like a loon. I was telling everyone who'd listen about my find, I need to congratulate you and tell you to keep up the excellent work you're doing in the field of gluten free b**rs. I really cannot express to you what drinking a superb dark stout means to me. I live in Preston and to find out you're only up the road in Clitheroe is even better. I know I've rambled a bit but I just wanted you to know that you're doing very good work in the world of gluten free and your efforts are appreciated and I'm currently spreading the word amongst the gluten free world. So thanks for bringing a little happiness to a usually grumpy, gluten neglected man. All the best. Cheers. Joe."

We're glad you enjoyed Joe, see you again soon!
