Big Bottled Ale range at The Jolly Coopers, Hampton

Without doubt The Jolly Coopers now has the biggest range of British bottled real ales
(or Real Ale In a Bottle (RAIB), if you prefer) in the land. Fifty milds, bitters, porters, stouts, pale ales, goldens, fruits, wheats, lagers and barley wines all standing in the cellar at the perfect temperature waiting to be chosen from the handy Ale List. It's a permanent and on-going BRAfest - Bottled Real Ale festival where you can take your time treating your taste buds to the breadth of beer styles and at the same time feasting your eyes on the bottle and label designs created by these craft brewers.
The pub itself is a wonderful traditional local community pub which has been well-established by Jane and Nick over the past two decades. It's not just a place for food and drink this pub is at the heart of the community. In the daytime the food is fulsome traditional fare and the evening offers a Spanish twist with a tantalising Tapas menu or first class cuisine from the Spanish chef. No 'less is more' portions here!
In addition to the horse-shoe main bar the pub has the restaurant at the rear and outside there is a comfortable sunny patio and a small amount of parking.
Well-worth a visit for a straight-forward, honest, traditional pub experience with the only dilemma of having choose from the widest bottled real ale list around.

Fuller's Brewer's Reserve

A limited batch of this unique, exquisite ale which is strong, full-bodied malty ale that has been aged in 30-year-old single malt casks for a period of 500 days. During this time the ale infuses with flavours and characteristics of the whisky that has absorbed into the wood, leaving a balance of hoppy bitterness and tangy marmalade fruit. Rounded off with subtle smoky vanilla notes and a hint of whisky, Brewer’s Reserve is a rich, amber, 7.7% ABV, limited edition ale that is both complex and distinctive.

BRAfest or Bottled Real Ale festival is an event based around an Ale List of 50 different British bottled real ales (CAMRA's Real Ale In a Bottle) including all beer styles, mild, bitter, golden, pale, porter, stout, wheat, fruit, lager-style and barley wine from micro and independent breweries in the UK. The event usually lasts 7-10 days and with a case (12 bottles) of each ale supplied.

The pub and event are promoted through local ads, outdoor banner, bunting, posters, online activity, PR etc.
The event and timing is flexible to fit in with your requirements.

Bottled Summer ales

O'Hanlon's wheat beer, Goldblade (4%): Crisp, refreshing, and deliciously citrus-tinted with a hint of spice, it’s a flavour that cuts the biggest thirst down to size. Made from only hand selected, traditionally prepared, floor-malted, riband wheat from rolling chalk downs of Wiltshire, this is a truly classic beer. An absolute for Summer barbecues.
