Hawkstone Session Lager
Lower in strength, built for the second and third pint rather than the first. Silver at the World Beer Awards in 2025, which for a session lager is genuinely difficult.

What it actually is.
Lower in strength, built for the second and third pint rather than the first. Silver at the World Beer Awards in 2025, which for a session lager is genuinely difficult.
Brewed at College Farm, Bourton-on-the-Water, by The Cotswold Brewing Company. The barley for the lagers is grown on Diddly Squat; the apples for the cider are British and freshly pressed, never from concentrate.

What people actually ask.
The two questions this page gets most, answered without a support ticket.
Because lagering properly takes weeks in a tank that could be turning over a faster beer, and because the barley is bought at a price that leaves the grower something.
Not from this site. Hawkstone reaches ten European countries through distributors, and the stockist finder is the honest route.
