SINCE 1807...
In a world that’s changing faster than ever,
it’s comforting that some things withstand the
passage of time. It is over two centuries since
Daniel Thwaites set out from his family’s Lake
District farm to make a new life for himself,
and the rest they say, is history.
Daniel built up his brewery based on strong family
values – an eye for quality and a generous blend
of innovation, craftsmanship and warm hospitality.
Who would have believed, six generations later,
that his family would proudly continue the journey
he started and remain faithful to his principles –
still striving for brewing perfection, now with a
growing collection of pubs, inns, hotels and spas.
Above all, we know that with Thwaites, from our
broad family of craft brewers in Lancashire, to our
traditional Shire horses – still pulling their brewery
drays, to our team members in properties up
and down Britain – no matter where you find us,
you will always be guaranteed a warm welcome
from a friendly face.
