A malty multiple-winner of CAMRA’s Champion Premium Beer of Britain, Batemans much loved XXXB is what you’d call an English tawny beer. Just like the first batch crafted in 1978, it’s brewed with four malts and three varieties of hops, for a deliciously spicy, fruity and biscuity flavour.

Cask at Blue Bell York 3 May 06. Dark brown. A creamy head. Hints of fruits. Apricot? Different and enjoyable.

Cask at County Hotel, JDW, Ashford Good dark brown malty beer with good hops on the end. Very consistant pint, in fact was having a conversation with phil_l and we think that this beer has not changed much in all the years that it has been brewed and retains its distinctive flavours

Sampled cask conditioned at Akkurat, Stockholm, Sweden.
Nut brown. Flowery nose. A bold ale with both feets steadily on the ground. Dry with salty, bitter finish. More or less defines the style strong bitter in my point of view.
