A restaurant with two Michelin stars near Ormskirk has partnered with a brewery in Liverpool to create a new pale ale.
Moor Hall has worked with Neptune Brewery after having its Michelin status retained in the latest guide, which was published earlier this year.
The Moor Hall Pale Ale is described as being soft and juicy on the palate, with vibrant flavours of blueberry and mango, and a refreshing citrus hit.

Head chef Mark Birchall and beverage director Ben Robinson worked closely with Neptune Brewery on recipe development.
Neptune co-owner Julie O’Grady said: "For too long, beer has played second fiddle in terms of how it is perceived in restaurants, with much focus on the provenance of the ingredients on the plate, but not the liquid in the glass.
"Beer is a delicious and diverse product, that pairs beautifully with so many dishes and can rival any wine in terms of its quality.
"It’s so great to partner with Moor Hall, who have always championed beer’s status on their menus, and we’re delighted to work with a fabulous local establishment who are as committed as we are to giving customers both a quality product and memorable experience."
Chef patron of Moor Hall Mark Birhall added: "We are extremely proud of our Moor Hall Pale Ale in collaboration with the fantastic Neptune Brewery, who are only five miles up the road from us.
"Provenance is key at Moor Hall and working with local suppliers is a huge part of what we offer here.
"We worked with Neptune to create a recipe we knew our guests would enjoy - it’s a great beer."
