Batham’s Brews
Batham’s currently produce three diferent cask ales. Two available all year round (Best Bitter and Mild) and a Christmas special (XXX) that’ll warm the cockles, and knock your socks off!
Batham’s Best Bitter
OG 1044 ABV 4.3%
A straw-coloured bitter which initially seems sweet, but a complex dry, hoppy taste soon predominates.
Probably the best example of the traditional Black Country style of bitter. No better partner to a lunchtime snack!
Also ideal for cooking with beef – see our previous articles!
Batham’s Mild
Ale
OG 1037 ABV 3.5%
Sweet and well-balanced dark brown ale with a hoppy, fruity finish
Full of flavour without the heaviness sometimes associated with mild ales. A Black Country classic!
A more substantial “liquid lunch” – and another great partner in the kitchen producing fantastic beef stews.
Batham’s
XXX
OG 1064 ABV 6.3%
A Christmas ale, mid brown in colour and strong, with a malty, fruity taste.
Hop flavour is present but malt predominates through to the aftertaste. Hold onto your hats, folks!
Batham’s Bottled Best Bitter
OG 1044 ABV 4.3%
A straw-coloured bitter which initially seems sweet, but a complex dry, hoppy taste soon predominates.
And for those who enjoy a tipple at home – or are travelling to places where Bathams isn’t available (heavens forbid!), best bitter is now available to enjoy all year round in bottles. Ask at your local Batham’s Pub!
