Thwaites Lancaster Bomber shot to fame when England and Lancashire Cricketer, Andrew “Freddie” Flintoff, endorsed it during the 2005 Ashes series win over Australia. It is now the Official Sponsor of Lancashire County Cricket Club and the beer can now be seen on the shirts of Freddie’s teammates at Lancashire CCC and continues to have a successful partnership with cricket in the North.
Lancaster Bomber is fast becoming the beer that most pubs are selling as their leading premium cask beer as it has a great moreish taste that has wide appeal amongst beer lovers everywhere.
Availability
At 4.4% ABV, our Head Brewer’s favourite beer is best enjoyed from the hand pull in pubs and bars and is available across the Thwaites pub estate and the free houses we supply.
It’s also available in a new embossed bottle to take home and can be found in most supermarkets and convenience stores in the North of England and is nationally sold in the likes of Morrisons, EH Booths and MAKRO. Don’t worry if you can’t find it, you can always buy on line here.
Tasting Notes
Chestnut in colour, Lancaster Bomber has a warming, full-flavoured taste, with a hint of toffee and biscuit and a very moreish flavour.
