The 'Seasiders Special' Brew

Brewer Daniel Thwaites has celebrated Blackpool’s promotion to the Premier League by producing a beer to mark the team’s triumph. Against the odds the Lancashire club secured promotion at the weekend after defeating Cardiff in the play-off final 3-2.

And Lancashire-based Thwaites, which supplies the bars at Blackpool FC, has created ‘Seasiders’ Special’, in celebration of the Tangerines’ success. The 4.1 % ABV beer goes on sale this week and will be available throughout pubs and clubs in and around Blackpool.

It will also be served at a special dinner to the Blackpool team at a local restaurant.

Lee Williams, marketing manager at Daniel Thwaites, said: “We are delighted at Blackpool’s success against Cardiff at the weekend and we are proud to support all their hard work and dedication. This is a momentous achievement for the club, town and people of Blackpool and we hope they all enjoy this new beer.” (The Publican)
