As I live in Kidderminster we are not that far away from several pubs that serve Bathams. My Wife and I both love the taste of this full flavoured bitter.

Cask. One of my favourite best bitter. A great ale within the Black country / Dudley area. A dark Golden ale in colour which sinks like velvet with a kind of dry hoppy after taste.

We have many great ales within the Black country / Dudley area but this is one of my overall favourites probably because there’s not than many places that sell it. A dark Golden ale in colour which sinks like velvet with a kind of dry hoppy after taste. Not a strong ale as it only 4.3% but if anybody is interested in trying this my tip is to try the New Inn Pub in Wordsley as they seem to look after it better than anybody else.

Aroma is fruity and malty with some alcohol and very little hops. Taste is bitter at first then sweet malt and some subtle peach and apricot coming through, a little caramel and classic english hop flavour to finish. Well balanced. Great beer and very moreish!

Cask at the Robin Hood, Amblecote. Pours light gold with a medium head. Aroma is light floral, bready malt and a touch of sulphur. Taste has bready malt and floral notes to start. Bready malt and a touch of grapefruit in the medium bitter finish.

Bottle at Craig’s house. toast, floral, pale, clear, minimal head, lightly bitter, light body, oily feel.
