With the Six Nations looming ahead, what better time to indulge in the delights of Batemans’ ‘Hooker’? This light amber beer was created in celebration of Rugby. Our February winner is brewed using mature crystallized malts with Styrian Bobek & Challenger hops, offering a fresh crispness, a citrus fruit overtone, and a tantalizing ‘dry hop’ aroma.
With consistently solid reviews across the board, Hooker is indeed a recommended beer to complement any February rugby occasion—especially if you’re enjoying the games from the pub.
Why you should focus on rugby in February
Various studies over the years have highlighted the uplifting potential of pub-centered rugby occasions and the friendly camaraderie of the rugby crowd that accompanies them. So, if you’re tired of the cold, damp, and dark days, if you’ve managed to keep your New Year resolutions intact through January, then the rugby weekends in February and March provide the perfect opportunity to unwind and bring that smile back to your face.
Plenty to prove
It’s all to play for, and it absolutely stands to reason that enjoying your spring rugby in the pub with a beer like Batemans Hooker adds a certain relevance that will enhance any rugby occasion.
Hooker is available throughout February from selected Batemans Pubs, so there really is no excuse not to kick this one right between the posts.
We certainly know how to put on a good show, year round we hold a variety of events.
