Batemans' Lincolnshire brewery is based in an old windmill, dating back two centuries, that overlooks the River Steeping. Chairman until his death in June 2007 was George Bateman, whose daugher Jaclyn is
Marketing Director and son Stuart is Managing Director. As one of the country's oldest family breweries, and a rare example of a sizeable independent brewery that is not only surviving, but thriving, there is plenty to
celebrate about the success of Batemans.
Batemans, Rosey Nosey (England) 
(RP) Here is a rich, luscious and warming ale ideal for winter and the Christmas period, brewed by the family-owned Bateman's brewery in Wainfleet, Lincolnshire. It is made from Maris Otter pale and crystal malts and
wheat malt and English Goldings hops. The aroma is ripe with sultana and raisin fruit, balanced by biscuity malt and tangy hop resins. Sappy malt, burnt fruit and spicy hops dominate the palate while the long and
complex finish has vine fruits, intensely bitter hops and rich malt. The bottled version is available nationally in the Co-op and Morrisons and in East Midlands outlets of Budgens, Londis, Tesco and Spar. A cask
version is on sale in Bateman's tied estate and selected free trade pubs. Malt: high Fruit: high Hops: moderate-high. 4.9% ABV, 50cl, �1.69.  |  |
