In 1807 Daniel Thwaites was the archetypal “game keeper turned poacher” as he switched jobs from Excise Duty Officer, collecting revenue from the Brewery, to owning and brewing the beer he would later name after himself - an inspired and momentous decision!
In 2007, to celebrate and honour this 200 Years of brewing expertise our Head Brewer created Thwaites Double Century. A signature, premium ale that demonstrated the skills built up over 5 generations of family brewing in Blackburn.
Availability
Available as a guest hand pulled cask beer in our pubs and bars and also to take home all year round in a new embossed bottle, Double Century is a truly, commemorative ale, that recognises this historic milestone and celebrates a great achievement in UK Family Brewing.

Tasting Notes
This refreshing amber coloured premium ale is well balanced with a malty character. Double hopped using English golding and fuggles with the late addition of Bramling Cross to give a bitter orange finish
