Staff at a popular Cumbria tourist attraction toasted their 20th anniversary with a very special beer.
Cockermouth-based Jennings Brewery created the limited edition Via Ferrata in to mark Honister Slate Mine's milestone birthday yesterday. It is named after the mine's adventure experience.
The beer will be available in pubs nationally throughout April.
Honister was celebrating two decades since the revival of England’s last surviving slate mine.
As well as introducing mine tours to attract visitors, Honister also created the UK’s first Via Ferrata, where participants scale a system of iron rungs and supports to the summit of Fleetwith Pike.
