Battledown Beers
- Saxon (ABV 3.8%)
A light gold pale ale, fresh and lively with a clean dry taste.
- Brigand (ABV 4.7%)
A medium bodied, deep golden beer, faintly malty and fruity with a balancing bitterness from the hops.
- Turncoat (ABV 4.5%)
Darker in colour and taste, somewhere between a porter and a stout, smooth with a slightly sweet malt finish.
- Sunbeam (ABV 4.2%)
California Common (aka. American 'Steam Beer') An ale brewed in the American post-prohibition way using lager yeast (at ale temperatures) and Northern Brewer hops..
- Tipster (ABV 4.2%)
Rich golden ale, complex and satisfying, the malts evident but giving way to the triple hop addition to give a spicy and slightly citrus finish.. Originally brewed for Cheltenhanm race weeks, but now brewed much more often..
- What He's Having (ABV 4.2%)
For the indecisive, a deep amber medium-bodied beer, with gentle citrus notes from the First Gold hops giving a satisfying and interesting beer.
- Cheltenham SPA (ABV 5.2%)
A crisp and slightly fruity pale ale. Triple hopped and brewed in the original India Pale Ale tradition.
