Commercial director Tony Greenwood said: "Whilst this won't plug the hole left by an empty ground, it generates supporter engagement and can give the club at least some revenue where there has previously been none."
The 1883 Lager, named after the year Chorley FC was formed, has been described as a "traditional football fans classic lager" that is "crisp, refreshing, and flavoursome."
Magpipa Black IPA, on the other hand, is said to be "a flowy sessionable ale" with "super citrusy floral aromas."
