Due to the popularity of our line of hand made creamics we now bring you a beautiful hand made growler. Twin Lakes is proud to introduce a growler good enough to hold our beer. Sure you can enjoy our great tasting beer from our standard glass growlers or by the pint at lots of Delaware area taverns and restauraunts, but it never tastes better than when it comes from this beautiful hand crafted growler.
Each of these ceramics is a unique work of art, which has been meticulously hand made for Twin Lakes Brewery. The mugs plaques and growlers are the creation of Romanick Pottery of Newark, Delaware. Opened in 1994 Romanick Pottery started with a passion for clay and the concept of combining a gallery space with a working clay studio.
“Commissioned work has been one of the special services provided to our customers” says Paul Romanick. "We have crafted hundreds of custom orders in addition to thousands of unique pieces for our gallery."
Made of high-fired stoneware pottery the mugs have been fired to nearly 2200 deg. F; making them very durable. They are dishwasher and microwave safe and like the beer that will go into them they contain only all natural ingredients. With proper care these mugs can last indefinitely and will certainly become collectors items in the future.
The mugs are available only by visiting the brewery and placing an order. Once your order is placed your mug will be hand made exclusively for you. Take advantage of the opportunity to get one of these great beer mugs now while the offer lasts.

GREENVILLE -- The beer isn't actually green, but Twin Lakes
Brewing Co. is brewing it with "green energy."
New solar panels at the 2-year-old business are generating about 30 percent of its power, with the potential to expand in years ahead.
With all six varieties of Twin Lakes on tap, a good time is guaranteed for all.
"We wanted to fight what we call the energy terrorists"" said Matt Day, marketing and sales director at the brewery, which makes five types of ale, using no preservatives.
"We brew it naturally here, from the water on the farm."
Installed in February, the solar energy system gave the company a reason to celebrate Earth Day early. On Saturday, owners offered visitors tours, live music, food and -- of course -- cold beer.
The brewery, on a 252-acre farm that's been in the family of co-owner Sam Hobbs for seven generations, sold 10,000 cases of beer last year, Day said. An investment in solar power seemed logical, with energy and gas prices skyrocketing, he said.
"Delaware has some of the best incentives in the country" said Bill Rawheiser, president of Wise Power Systems, which installed Twin Lakes' solar panels. Delaware's Green Fund pays half the costs of solar energy systems for residents and businesses, and the state and federal governments offer tax credits to people who go solar.
"I know beer, and I would say this is probably one of the most natural tasting beers anywhere," said Enrico Espinosa, who sipped a glass of Greenville Pale Ale on Saturday afternoon. A regular customer, he brings empty half-gallon jars called "growlers" to the brewery once a week for refills.
"It's glorious," Espinosa said. "You should try some"
Rawheiser has installed solar energy systems at an increasing number of residences and businesses across the state.
"It's mostly residential, but the businesses are starting to call," Rawheiser said. "They're realizing if they own their own energy generation, they're in control."
