The Jarrow ales are best sampled at one of Jarrow's two excellent pubs, i.e. The Robin Hood at Jarrow, or The Maltings at South Shields (my local). Superb beers all.
Bull Lane ales aren't that easy to track down outside of Sunderland, but if you do feel brave enough to venture into Mackem country you'll find them at their best at the Bull Lane brewpub, i.e. The Clarendon in High Street East - and at only two quid a pint.
I love real ale me. As my ever-expanding belly will testify!
