Bathams is a brewery in Brierley Hill, West Midlands, England established in 1877 in a former slaughterhouse.[1] The brewery is described by the CAMRA Good Beer Guide as "A classic Black country small brewery". It produces three cask conditioned beers, Best Bitter (4.3%), Mild (3.5%) and XXX (6.3%), a Christmas special. The Best Bitter won its highly contested class at the Great British Beer Festival in 1991.[2] Bottled versions are also available at Bathams pubs.

The Brewery is currently run by brothers Tim and Matt Batham, having been in the Batham family for five generations.[3] It is one of few breweries that still use 54-gallon hogshead casks.

Bathams owns twelve pubs in the Black Country and West Midlands:[4]
