Known for American Pale Ale · Porter

Bath Ales was founded in 1995 and has built its range around Gem, the amber best bitter that remains its flagship. Since 2018 the beers have come from Hare Brewery in Warmley, a four-vessel brewhouse that doubled the available capacity and can produce more than 50,000 brewers' barrels a year, the equivalent of over 14.5 million pints. Bath Ales beers are sold in supermarkets across the UK and poured in pubs throughout the country, on cask as well as in bottle.

How we measure this

Two thresholds are at work here:

  • The signature list shows notes that recur in at least 6% of this brewery's beers. A low bar — enough to flag a pattern, not high enough to call it an exclusive trait.
  • The peer comparison below shows only notes where this brewery's coverage differs from similar breweries by at least 20 percentage points. A higher bar — enough to call a real difference, not a nudge.

A note can appear on the signature list without appearing in the peer comparison: it recurs here, but similar breweries do the same thing.
