Description
Since George and Susannah Bateman opened our independent family brewery in 1874, we’ve been using the best possible ingredients and craft brewing methods to make beers that people love.

Four generations later, and we’re still doing things our own way – and have quite a few more beers to our name.

[Cask at Charlie’s Bar, Copenhagen] An amber beer with a small beige head. The aroma is sweet caramel. The flavor is also sweet caramel with notes of spices and peach, before a very dry hoppy end sets in. A very refreshing summer beer.

[Cask at GBBF 03] An opaque brown beer with a small brown disappearing head. The aroma is nutty with malt notes. The flavor starts on a pretty bitter note followed by a nice maltiness with a little note of roast malt. It ends on a pleasant bitterness. It is a little thin in the palate - probably because of the low alcohol content. All in all an average bitter.

The aroma is very fruity. The color is amber but it has no head. The mouthfeel is soft. The flavor is malty with notes of black currant and apples. It ends on a slight sourness but not much bitterness - rather a dry fruityness. Not my kind of beer.

Dark bitter with a whispy head, and a summer sweet lightly hopped aroma. A floral sweet and caramel flavour with a flour texture finish. A pleasant enough summer beer.

Sampled cask conditioned at Akkurat, Stockholm, Sweden.
Orange-amber. Vague fruity aroma. Clean and resiny, fruity and rather sweet. Not as stable as other Bateman's beer. Bitter pine needle finish. Too clean to be really interesting.

A dark Yellow beer with no head. It has next to no aroma. The flavor is of a light average ale. An OK beer but nothing special.
