DOUBLE DIAMOND (1876-2003)


Double Diamond Burton Ale was a brand of British ale brewed from 1876 to 2003.
 
During the 1960s it was advertised heavily by Ind Coope, especially on TV, with the jingle:
"A Double Diamond works wonders, works wonders, works wonders.
A Double Diamond works wonders, so drink some today!"
 
Carlsberg UK discontinued general sales of the brand in April 2003, though a small amount continued to be sold in bottles for some months.
Carlsberg UK still sells a Burton Ale seasonally in its Draught Cask series but under the Ind Coope brand, not as Double Diamond.
