Burnley pub news, April 2002
The Garden Bar
This regular CAMRA Good Beer Guide entry, selling Lees Bitter,
has now been granted a Special Hours Certificate, entitling it to open until 1am from Thursday until Saturday.

The Dugdale Arms
In 1999 this pub was in The Good Beer Guide until Thwaites, whose commitment to real ale is at best questionable, decided to replace real with smooth. Well, real ale is again available, so get it while you can.

The George IV
Further down Padiham Road, The George is selling Moorhouses Black Cat at £1.35. A pity it's only available in one Moorhouses pub in Burnley - The General Scarlett.

The Duke of York
As reported last month, The D.O.Y. was opening imminently. Well, it has, and a good refurb has been done. It's doing a good trade, but disappointingly real ale is conspicuous by its absence.
Litten Tree
Rumours circulating around suggest that the Safeway site at the Centenary Way / Church Street / Cat's Whiskers Roundabout is going to be developed into a Litten Tree outlet. I'm not sure who owns these outlets, but they are very much food orientated in the Wetherspoon's and Orange House mould. That said, I know the Litten Tree in Rochdale sells real ale.
Moorhouses Brewery
Burnley's number one brewery is brewing two seasonal ales: an Easter brew at 4.6% and a Golden Ale for the Queen's Jubilee, which I understand will be a 6% offering.
