Pub-goers in Cumbria can now tuck into a new pie made with Hawkstone IPA, the beer founded by television presenter and farmer Jeremy Clarkson.
Marston’s new Hawkstone IPA & Beef Pie is on the menu at almost 500 pubs across the UK – including four in Cumbria.
The dish is being served at three locations in Keswick including the George Hotel, Oddfellows Arms and Twa Dogs, plus at the Sun Inn near Penrith.
The limited-edition pie combines British diced beef and pulled beef cheek, slow-cooked in a rich gravy made with Hawkstone IPA.
It’s cooked with seasonal vegetables and Barber’s Cheddar, and encased in a buttery shortcrust pastry.
Customers will see it on menus as the Hawkstone IPA & Beef Pie, served with seasonal vegetables, extra gravy and a choice of chips or mash, depending on the pub.
Bottles of Hawkstone IPA will also be available, offering the "perfect pairing."
Hawkstone was launched in 2021 by Diddly Squat farm owner Clarkson, and the IPA was named England’s best IPA at the World Beer Awards in 2025.
Andy Cross, sales director at Hawkstone, said: “Farming isn’t just ‘how’ Hawkstone is made, it’s ‘why’ it’s made.
"The more Hawkstone you drink, the more barley we buy from British farmers.
"That’s why we’re thrilled Marston’s is serving Hawkstone IPA, not just by the bottle but also in a Great British pub classic, in almost 500 pubs nationwide.
"So, visit your local Marston’s pub, tuck into a pie and help us celebrate the farming community before stocks run out.”
Kiran Bains, director of brand activation, Marstons, called British beef and Hawkstone IPA a "match made in heaven."
He said: “We’ve created a really delicious dish to serve to guests up and down the country, introducing Hawkstone to more customers and giving them a new reason to visit their local.
"We can’t wait for everyone to try it!”
