Our famous malty and oaty ale, Havercake, is back in both cask and 500ml bottles for 2023. 10p from every pint of cask ale sold will be donated to the Army Benevolent Fund - the Army’s national charity - who support soldiers, past and present, and their families for life.
History
Originally brewed to honour the soldiers of the Duke of Wellington's Regiment, affectionately nicknamed 'Havercake Lads'. The name is derived from the oatmeal bread cake that was the staple food of the Yorkshire Pennine towns and villages where most of the soldiers lived.
Havercake has been created using a mixture of amber malt and two types of oat malt. This delivers a full-bodied, moreish ale with a creamy head and slight sweetness. Fuggles and Goldings are in the hop mix, which adds to the overall taste.
Where can I find it?
500ml bottles of Havercake are exclusive to our webshop, and are available here.
It will be available in cask in pubs throughout our own estate and wider from around Friday 3 November - including Taylor's on the Green in Keighley and the Woolly Sheep Inn in Skipton.
A list of pubs that have bought Havercake is included below. This does not include pubs who have bought through a wholesaler, so if you're unsure if your local sells it, it would be worth contacting them before you visit.
This list is updated weekly, so please check back for availability.

Run a pub and interested in ordering?
Unfortunately we have sold out of casks of Havercake this year, due to it being a limited stock. Stay tuned next year for updates on if we do another brewing.
