Socks? Deodorant sets? Another mug saying “Best Dad Ever”?

This Father’s Day, skip the usual and treat Dad to something he’ll genuinely enjoy.

A Black Lion drinks voucher makes the perfect gift, whether it’s for a pint with friends, a quiet whisky, or an afternoon spent putting the world to rights.

Better yet, bring him in this Sunday and treat him to one of our premium single malt whiskies from The Barn, paired with our newest cheese board addition – Snowdonia’s Amber Mist.

This award-winning cheddar is infused with single malt whisky and served with crackers and sweet pickle from the main bar. A match made for whisky lovers.

Father’s Day is this Sunday – vouchers available now from the bar.

One thing we always encourage at The Black Lion? Drinking beer! 🍻

With so many bottles, cask ales and craft beers on offer, we think it’s important that our team actually know what they’re talking about. That means regularly trying new beers, comparing notes, and on the occasional quieter evening, cracking open a bottle to expand our knowledge. Tough job, we know… 😉

The result? Better recommendations, honest opinions, and a team that’s always happy to help you find your next favourite pint.

Think you can catch us out? Come down and test the staff’s beer knowledge! 🍺

🍒 Fancy trying something a little different?

Kasteel Rouge is a Belgian fruit beer brewed with Oblacinska cherries on a base of Kasteel Donker, creating a rich, smooth beer packed with juicy cherry flavour and a subtle sweetness balanced by a refreshing finish.

At 8% ABV, it’s deceptively easy drinking and a favourite for both fruit beer lovers and those looking to step outside their usual order.

If you haven’t given it a go yet, Monday’s the perfect excuse. 🍺❤️

Acoustic Sunday is back this afternoon from 3pm! ☀️🎶

The weather’s looking good, so we’re hoping to keep things outside and make the most of the sunshine. Whether you fancy bringing your guitar along for a few tunes or just want to sit back with a pint and enjoy some laid-back background music, we’ve got you covered.

See you this afternoon! 🍻🎸

🧀 New in and already stealing the spotlight… Snowdonia Rock Star Cave Aged Cheese! 🤘

Rich, mature and beautifully creamy with a deep, savoury flavour that’s been developed through careful cave ageing, this is the kind of cheese that deserves a proper pint alongside it. Expect a smooth texture with a bold, lingering bite that’ll have you reaching for another cracker.

We’re serving it just right with sweet pickle, Ritz crackers and Jacob’s crackers – the perfect Saturday evening stomach liner before a night of drinking in style. 🍻

Whether you’re sharing (or absolutely not sharing), grab a board and treat yourself this weekend.

We’ve just put Repetitive Strain Injury on the bar from Spitting Feathers Brewery… and Cellar Steve’s already suffering from exactly what it says on the pump clip. 💀🍺

Thankfully, the actual pint isn’t quite this big.

New to us from the Cheshire-based brewery, Repetitive Strain Injury is a 5.6% IPA brewed with pale malts and a blend of cutting-edge British and American hops, delivering a seriously moreish pint packed with bright citrus notes, floral aromas and a satisfyingly crisp, bitter finish.

Steve insisted on “just one”… we probably should’ve asked what size. 💪

Not all stouts are what they seem… 👀

Meet Nethergate White Stout – the beer that looks like a golden ale but drinks like your favourite creamy stout. Expect smooth roasted coffee notes, hints of chocolate and vanilla, and a silky body that’ll have you checking the colour twice. 🍺

It’s the ultimate plot twist in a pint, and it’s available now. Fancy confusing your taste buds?
